Default What should I do

A while ago I tried to remove my molding arelized that the clear coat was sprayed over it. Tonight I removed the passenger side FIREBIRD emblem and was surprised to see that the clear coat was uniform under it. That makes no sense. Tomorrow I am going to go back and see if I was an idiot and there actually is uniform clear coat under the molding too. Anyway, here are a few choices of what I could do with the car.

This is how the car sits now


This is with the side molding also taken off if the clear coat allows for it


This is another way that I really like the car. I think it flows with the side markers really well and also matches my rear bumper



Lemme know what you guys think. IMO everyone does the molding delete. I thought that the black molding was a little unique and looks good.

i did the side markers because there were too many colors on the car with black tail lights, red side markers, and amber side markers. Any one else. Please voice your opinion because I may be attempting some of this tomorrow.

i personally don't care for the side molding in black... but that's a personal thing. to me it kinda looks like it was just randomly stuck on there.

best case scenario would be to take the moldings off... it's going to suck if you can't. they painted over them on my b4c too.. i'm glad i checked with them before i pulled them off because that would've been a bad day.
