Just thought i'd post up a few before and after pics for anyone thinking about adding an OEM Front Lip or taking off there body side moldings... rims and suspension are next! Jon.

 

lookin good...........looks better without moldings

 

Nice job, much better looking with the lip and no molding.

 

Yes, your ride definitely has cleaner lines without the side moldings. The natural body lines stand out better, now.

I like that OEM front lip, as well. That's a "have to have," for me, now that I have seen a handful of pics with it installed.

 

too true...

 

looks clean

 

like the lip on but the side moldings removed is much cleaned plus it'll be a snap to wax now.

 

Definately not a fan of the side-mouldings... ...and I think you can understand why now. The lip was a nice addition as well.

 

I'm in the minority here, but your pics were great. Thanks for finally making up my mind for me, no front lip for me. Looks cleaner in my eyes.

THANKS for all the comments guys. I've had the car about a month, but the mods are coming little by little, heheh...

Lowrider, glad my pics could help regardless of which way you go. we'll see how it all looks once i drop it and slap on the rims.

 

how are the moldings held on? Is it adhesive?

 

Well....I'm deff in the minority here.....I think the car looks better with the side moulding!

It breaks up the long lines of the door panel and makes the car look lower...IMO.

Plus...now you have nothing between you and other careless doors & dings.

I like the lip though......

Hey...diff strokes.....that is what makes the world go around.

 

i had a chance to have the moldings shaved, and didn't do it. now i see i made the right choice. the side moldings provide a logical split to the car - without them, it loses something...

but - i'm glad you did it because now your car is different than other peoples'. "i disagree with what you have to say, but i would die for your right to say it."

on another note - have the front lip molded to the bumper - it looks a lot better that way when there is no gap. i had it done on my rear bumper - pics to come soon.
