Question Anyone filled in the lines on a Camaro???

The lines that go from where the bumpers meet the body and continue on the middle of the doors on camaros. if you don't know what I am talking about look at a camaro door (93-02) and see the line/indentation that runs along the middle of it and see it continues on the whole side of the car.

Would love to see if someone filled these in with bondo etc. and painted them - partially or all the way around. please post or link to pics. thanks!

I remember seeing a black Camaro on here with shaved molding. Honestly, I thought it looked weird. There are pics... somewhere... around here.

I also remember seeing a photoshop of one that was done. As mentioned, it would be expensive because that would mean you'd have to mold in the front and rear bumper to the rest of the body.

considering how hard it would be to mold the rear bumper I would leave that alone. but it seems it would be easy to do the front as there is only a small area where it connects to the car above the turn signals the rest is an implied line on the nose of the bumper that can be sanded down as well as the door and a small portion of the rear fender. Too bad that thread doesn't have more pics.

I found one in her sig though. looks like she only did the doors and nothing else so it looks wierd.
