i took my door moldings off as well and i love the way it looks. I am still thinking about taking the trans am embelms off the side but still undecided. Strips also look great.

i took the molding off years ago and never looked back. i agree with who ever said it a few post earlier; i don't know why more people don't do it as well. i went one step further though. you can't see it in my sig picture but i relocated the "Trans Am" emblems to the front of the ground effect about 6 inches behind the front wheel well. removing the molding gives the car a much, much smoother and cleaner look and i think relocating the "Trans Am" emblems to that location allows you to keep that clean look.
the stripes could stay or go but if you are looking for a clean look i would go with just the "Ram Air" letters in a charcoal or a chrome decal. that would be a cleaner look for the hood.

I tried the stripes on my car after I got my ram air hood but went with a solid stripe with the "Ram Air" cutouts (which I later removed, they just didn't do it for me). The stripes you've got with the pinstripes look awesome... that's actually making me think about throwing some back on mine .

IMO, T/A's look alot better with no moldings... did mine about a year ago after they started to yellow and couldn't be happier!

By the way... those rims are HOT!

Picked up some fishing string yesterday and my custom blackbird stripes just came in the mail today. Nice!
