Does anyone have any pictures of shaved body moldings? A friend of mine told me to do it, and i've seen it mentioned on here, I just dont know how it would look and if it would benefit the looks. Thanks!

I have some but I'm on my phone. It looks Sick as hell, do it
I had to replace mine but so I 1st though of the shaved look and it looks great without the door lettering. To me it made the trans am lettering look to big so I put the molding on till I have time to sprays the side skirts and airbrush some lettering so it's flush.
Heres mine.. Definitely a much cleaner look IMHO

Thank you, right back at you though.. IF I didnt hate trying to keep black cars clean, it definitely would have been the route I would've gone. the SOM is hard enough surprisingly to keep clean (up to my standards lol)Quote:

very simple way to beautiful your firebird/trans am.did this to my 96 firebird,looked awesome,i removed the firebird emblem too,very clean look.
yeah i really do like that. i wasn't sure if i would but those molding really are a sore to the eyes. i did it to my cobalt when i had one and liked the turn out. did you guys use a heat gun to take them off?
SOMETIMES they'll peel right off, but its best to be safe and use a hair dryer and something like fishing line
no moldings x100000000000000

after taking off the side molding do i have to get it painted or would it come out fine? i had never thought of doing this and im debating on doing it myself or taking to a body shop.
mine was 15 years old and it came out just fine.. it could depend on the color of your car though.... in my past i have seen where red colors tend to fade more... if you pull the molding off the paint under may not have faded the same as the rest of the car.... just something to think about.
I just did mine on my 12 year old TA no probs at all.

ditch the side moldings!!! i did mine and my car looks far better with out them... if you're concerned about door dings just try to park further away from other cars...
my solution :cheers:Quote:

The doors aren't metal so they don't ding only the 1/4 panels get them. Worst you can do to.a door is chip the paint.Quote:
