Once off and the glue removed buff on some ScratchX to remove the shadows then throw on some quality wax....it'll look better than new....

this car looks exactly what mine looks like now, the color i mean.. i hope when i do mine it doesnt leave anything behind lol but theres only one thing im worried about, before i got my car last year, it was involved in a accident, and had paint work and being that i selll cars i looked at the paint work, and seen that the fender and door was blended in, and i hope the side molding wasnt painted because if i take it off and its a diff color id be mad lol this is my only worry now...but i still think off they goo because noone told me otherwise, everyone saying it will be a whole new car.. and i need a changed to it haha

i dont think you can buff this out, b/c i think when i took the moldings off in the freezing cold that it took off the clear coat to lol. so i had to purchase new moldings and put them back on

ya know this is the first time I ever saw side mouldings on a G. I never knew they were an option.

That being said, eeww. Must go.

A guy at my job has the exact same year and color G35 as me, and his also is a 6-speed(thus it has the Brembos) with the aero package. The only difference between our cars is that mine has Nav and his doesn't, and his has the side moldings and mine doesn't. He always parks close to my car and I can honestly say that his car looks foolish with those side moldings on it in comparison to mine. It completely ruins the lines of the car and detracts from the overall sleek look of the G Coupe.
