tell me what you guys think :X

It will buff out.
10-02-2010
i think its just tape.
but i think they look dumb without it, it gives the body more of a look with the trim
10-02-2010
I just need to know how to remove them :X or atleast how their held on
10-02-2010
its got clips that go into the doors.
you need to have them welded shut then painted... basically you have to be looking for a paint job else it'll never look right.

When you remove it you will see the holes where the clips are inserted. Gives the car a complete different look when they are removed, but you also have to take the time to weld the holes shut and repaint the doors.

Does anyone know if its painted underneath?
10-03-2010
It's painted underneath, but because of the years that it was covered, it won't look the same. There are holes underneath that will have to be filled in, and it's going to take an honest amount of work to smooth it out.
On the bright side, when removed, it makes our cars look sexy as hell.

Did you remove yours?Originally Posted by SaW1833

No. But I've seen plenty of GPs without them and I know how the process goes.
Also, doing this would be the BEST excuse to repaint your car...
10-03-2010
How should i go about removing them, and do you tihnk it would be doable with out repainting the car?
10-03-2010
you HAVE to paint the area where the holes are at the very least.
But matching certain colours of FADED paint will be tough so its best to repaint the whole thing if you're that hardcore about your car.
Note show car only since thats what prevents you from getting some dings.
10-03-2010
Alright, what are the clips that hold it on? are they those expandable ones?
10-03-2010
Again I'll say it, many old cars, and many newer cars, have little-to-no protection in the same area anymore. Including 04+ GPs...
It does have some indents there, but nothing to actually protect from door dings.
10-03-2010
i'd think it makes the car look cleaner w/out that body strip, but to remove it means you'll need to weld and repaint the door.. do it and show pics
10-03-2010
on a coupe, yes. on a sedan, don't even think about it.
takes a lot of work, but very well may be worth it.

hey i think you need to have the holes welded and then painted.
just thought id repeat it for the 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,001st time

Unless your car is a show car I would leave them on. They are there to help protect the door from dings, key word being to help not to prevent, cuz some asshole always manages to park next to you with their jacked up truck and throw their door into the side of your car.
