damn, those look nice, ya bastid!

thank you very much kind sir. I love the wheels on my car the more I look at em! Thanks again and again Bobby!!!

Funny thing now is my wife is TELLING ME the car NEEDS lowered!! haaaaaahaaaaa! Yes!!! Not only do I have permission to spend the money, i've been told to spend it!!(alright) Now I gotta save up.

Once it's dropped it'll look sweet. I like the flat black on the rear bumper. I may have to do that route.
 
I know, but, I am affraid to see what's under it. I've got 2 little peices across the hood too. I went to pull those, and, the first came off fine, but, that was a decoy. I pulled the other and it was hiding car cancer!! That and they have been on there a while and I know the paint color will be off under them

(werd) I removed it from my MSP....

Not the vinyl stuff around the windows or the door mouldings- the edge trim on the edges of the doors.

From the side shots of the car, the edging makes it look like the edge gaps between the doors and the fenders are HUGE. Makes the edge gaps on a Saturn look reasonable.

I also removed my door mouldings. Hard to say what the Florida sun has done to your paint (or not done to the paint underneath the mouldings) but when I removed mine after 3 years of Oklahoma/Kansas sun, I didn't notice any difference.
 
I pulled my door edge molding off after 3 years, and the color was fine... just have some automotive goo gone on hand.

I knew what ya'll were talking about. And, it isn't really the FL sun I'm worried about. It's the previous life it spent in the snow for 2 years of its life, then moving to FL.

I'll try to pull it and see what it looks like. I will have to find something for the hood though, cause it's rusting pretty good. Maybe have to replace it

Tylor
 
well, i'd say if you found hidden cancer elsewhere on the car, you're better off removing them to check there too...

better to find out now then when it eats more of the door.
 
not to appear like a total noob but all u need is a heat gun to take them off?
 
You may need a heat gun to get the baked on double-sided-sticky tape loose. Use a light solvent like WD-40 to help break it up as well.
 
Drove around Saturday just taking pics. Here's my favs out of the bunch. And, these have yet to be touched by any photoediting program except to fix the contrasts. I will be toying with them more as I get better.
