Depends if you want something slightly different or standard and just sprayed over
i want to bog it cos it will look different, but some people reckon it will be hard to sell.
who said that? name him
x2 !! LoL its your personal preference dude! if you have the money then do it..Quote:

if you have the money.... dip them in chrome!
or gunmetal, whatever colour your rims are.
just my 2cents.
i say colour code them to the car and forget about them :)
bog it up welding take too long
i leave my side mouldings.... save my moms car everytime i get in & out of the civic.
mine r welded fibreglassed n bogged.
i did it myself n i got lazy sanding it.
my doors were warped already so wast too fussed.
but i have no mouldings or slots but keep 1 thing in mind
if u fill em in make sure u shave the insides of them becasue they touch if u dont and will crack or chip your paint.
nice man
u got any pics?
Who ever done the welding must be shit then.Quote:

It's not nice when the bog ends up sinking as you will have to use a fair bit.
Don't forget also that if you bog then you will have to repaint the whole thing, or do a really good colour match/blend. If you are still trying to figure it out id sugest painting your mouldings to match your car. You would still change the look ie. blend in more, and then you could chose to go either way :)
Colour matching isn't that hard if you know what your doing.
True I guess, but... paint is expensive no? I just would have though before he does something drastic that he should try something simpler. It wont affect anything he choses to do in the long run thats all.
LEAVE IT STOCK!
haha
Maybe for some people.Quote:

Ok then since you are going to re-spray I would say do as you wish. Just have a good think because you don't want to regret what you do later on. Personally I dont like shaved mouldings... But if it floats your boat then go for it! :)
Shave your locks while your at it :P
u guys reckon it will look good?
Planning to fibre glass it then bog it on the surface
just get them color coded,
with it shaved, like my old accord, some kids in other cars open door and BAM, big dint :)
but with it shaved or not, regardless and anyone that hits your car will leave a dentQuote:

i rather a cheaper option, cause think about it, something u wanted going wrong every week :)
wth,
people bang ur doors everyday ?
well u do get it, if u park in parking lots where alot of people who doesnt give a rats ass,
but then again my 2 cents, no offense intended
looks good tho without the moulds
Do moldings even line up the same on every different car?
im actually planning to keep mine, but colour match. I take it all thats needed is a good sand, some plastic primer, paint and a clear coat? Shouldnt be too much work =/
as for you, if you are going to respray the car, I'd got for the shaved look...go on, bog it up (but do it right, weld first!)
