Pics of Black TAs w/o side moldings?
 

Debating taking off the side moldings on my black 02 ta. Wondering if someone could post some pics of a Black ta w/o side moldings to let me see what it would look like and maybe some opinions. Thanks

I don't have pics of mine yet but be careful that you don't have the same problem that I did, which was that my car has been recleared with the moldings on the car so it looks good in some places and not so good in others. Eventually I will need to at the very least have the car cleared again and or painted. Most people wouldn't notice it but I do....Definitely looks better w/o them though!!

Thanks for the input. More than likely going to take them off this weekend.

Your fingers might be a little pissed off after the blisters form but you won't regret taking them off.

IMO, cars looks a lot cleaner without moldings and emblems.

x2 with them being recleared! not that noticeable but enough to piss me off! But agreed that they look much better w/o!

The cars look great guys. Thanks for the pics. Definetly going to take them off now after seeing how it will look.

Looks a lot cleaner with out the moldings! +1 for !moldings

Take my advice and make sure you test with one of the small sections of molding before you rip everything off. I took everything off just to realize that the car had been recleared and/or repainted. What a waste...

Next mod:)

ok, so i dont have the hind sights 20/20, what are the best procedures on taking them off. what to use and what not to. and also how can i tell if my car has been re cleared

Take off one of the small sections first - and clean the spot up totally (I used goo-gone to get the adhesive off). If your car has been painted or cleared, you will see the original paint where the strip was and the new will be raised up some. If it has been painted, might as well put that section back on and forget it.

+1 on the blisters....

You've seen this one before,,

looks awesome without... I don't notice the clear being very messed up. I plan on buffing mine somtime to clean it up a little... but you will not forget it... might take some before and after pcs if you can.. wish i would have done that when i did mine.
