New guy and his hella stock ride

Hi all,

Just purchased an '03 coupe w/88k miles on it last week and thought I'd share my ride. Prior to this car I use to own a '96 G20 until it was totaled when some lady ran a red light But I'm happy to be sticking with the Nissan/Infiniti family It's as stock as hell, but when I graduate I hope to have enough money to put some mods on it. Or maybe I'll just dip into my savings and get some new shoes first

Thanks for the compliments!

And after a while of looking at my car, I noticed something was different but I couldn't quite figure out what... then I realized my car came with the side moldings. What do you guys think about them? Would they be hard to take off? I assume it's riskier to take those off as compared to debadging because I think the adhesive is different (I think it may be glued on?)

I dunno if I personally like them...

Nope easy to take off, Goo gone and some floss acting at like a saw to cut the adhesive, its reletivly the same as debadging, and debadging is not risky lol

Those clearly are not projectors one thing about taking the side moulding off is the paint underneath will not be faded like the rest of the car so it will be slightly darker.

I don't like the side moldings personally.
