Have to park at the end of the lot like a lot of us.
Your car will look much better without.

Anyone know how this looks on a TA? Like a picture? I was thinking of doing this to my TA.

Both of my cars are done.

Park closer to the car on the passenger side if he's that big.

In most cases the molding doesn't help much.

ill try to get my car out of that parking spot i have, cuz both of the casr are big cars too.. its an expediton on the left. and a van on the right side, so the best thing is get another place. plus the springlers messed up the paint on my car..


most of the scratches are on the molding. they look white cuz both cars on the sides are white..



but i will def get it done,, looks way better without it

I definitely will.

Sorry for the crappy pics but I did the side molding mod, I just need to clean off the outline of the moldings now. It was too sunny outside so I had to attempt to take some pics in the garage, hopefully this weekend I can get some better pictures.

Wow badaas man.
What rims are those?

Looks killer.

Use some WD40 on a rag to get the dried residue/dirt off.

Then wash that spot/side right after.

I will do that once I can get my car started and backed up into the driveway.
