Removing old camper shell
I just bought an '86 GMC 1500. It came with a camper shell that I dont want. But I have heard that since its so old it could be bad to take it off at this point cause of the paint. Anyone have any experience with this?

+1 on the bed rail caps. I've had to do it in the past, there's alot to choose from. You should be able to find something that fits your style.

Take the camper off first, you might get lucky and the paint may be OK. If not get yourself some caps and it will look sharp and noone will know but you. I had a '71 that I bought with a camper on it the shell had been on for 14 years and when I took it off I was surprised. There was only 3 spots on each rail that was bad, from where the hold down bolts were drilled through.

This is just an example, but you should be able to walk into any auto parts store or accesory store and ask for bed rail covers. They are pretty common and any website has them
