I had to!
Yeah thats what i was afraid of! But I already have dings on my rear panels, i didnt have any dings on the doors or the molding, and someone on here said that the doors dont get dinged since theyre made out of plastic 
but either way i was just curious to see how it would look with them off, im not partial to them on or off, it really looks the same, but now im starting to worry about dings 
and since my little brother snapped one i cant put them back on

...it was very easy. after washing and waxing i heated the molding really quick, and they pulled right off, my little brother was holding the hair dryer to them so that made it easy...for anyone wanting to do it in the future the following worked really well
*i removed the glue by rubbing my thumb over it
*i cleaned it up some with wd40, this helped a lot!
*lastly i cleaned up the area and any remaining glue/black **** with some Scratch X, this REALLY helped!
all in all it took maybe 15 minutes! well removing the molding not the wash and wax
here are some pics, i didnt get any before pics so i'll post some old ones...it looks a little bit better, im not wowed by the results. hopefully i dont regret it when some Ahole dents my door...

AFTER:
Sorry for the crappy pics, i snapped them really quick.

Hey KAGE thanks for quoting the pics, other wise there might have been a confusion as to what pics on this thread were ghey! ROOKIE! 
Why are some people upset/worried about remolding the molding on a 35th? I'm not trying to be rude or anything, i just dont get it?

I just don't get the fascination with removing the side molding. When I bought my '93, it didn't have molding on it because it was a stripped-down V6 M5 and I went to great pains to have it added. It was an option that not all Camaros had and, to me, the car looked cheaper without it. My Camaros have always been daily drivers and the molding actually serves a purpose. Besides, from 10 feet away, especially on a dark car (like NBM) it's hard to tell whether it's on there or not. Just glance at my sig pic and see what I mean. I just don't think it makes that much of a difference visually to be worthwhile of giving up the protection it provides. But, hey, you guys keep on doing the !molding mod. It just makes my SS look more unique.
