Any full shots of the car?

JDM Inspired

shame on all you guys, you guys dont see how different the car looks without the moldings, dam no REAR SHOT?? ......

Rockstar21

iTrader: (1)

from what i can tell they didnt do a good job.. instead of shaving them and making the door contour flush.. they just filled it in and left a dip down the door. id rather have teh moldings back instead of having the appearence of a LONG dent lol

JDM Inspired

That same dip is the body shape and its suppose to look like that, shaved moldings pretty much are when the holes are filled up......but Im sure it would look DIFFERNT because personally out of the years I had my TL, I never seen anyone with shaved moldings........and I shaved out the moldings on my old car and it looked much cleaner........

Wait a minute...I've think I've seen pics of this one on the forums before.

If I recall this is the guy with bucket seats in his TL front and rear and a R33 conversion taillight...unless that was an accord.

thinhthan

thats a nice job but he should have went with the oem front

tegkid

iTrader: (7)

you are correct sir.

n1njai

iTrader: (3)

So any pics of that rear? lol.

fobstylez

iTrader: (3)

Thats normal buddy? Its typical when you shave your moldings, like this integra.

JDM Inspired

what can you say bro, you and I know, but do they?

....It was cool at first, now its starting to lose its grip on me

It's Clutch

^eww at the back end

n1njai

iTrader: (3)

Interesting look indeed........on a side note, i dont think that integra shaved its side moldings, i think its a legit ITR where there were no side modlings in the first place. I might be wrong though.

Rockstar21

iTrader: (1)

lol... but "they know" so just let them rage on with their knowledge.

ive seen plenty of molding jobs finished clean and flush.

Rockstar21

iTrader: (1)

i guess he shaved his moldings too?



this is what a shaved door is supposed to look like

omfg sweet Outback!

Wrong, shaving the moldings means it would appear that nothing was ever there. What you are talking about is just filling in some clip holes.

Correct

fobstylez

iTrader: (3)

Sorry buddy, you are incorrect. This is not a legit ITR, ITRs do not come with a sunroof.

fobstylez

iTrader: (3)

Serious guys? The teal integra's molding goes inwards towards the door, so its like a dent/hole in the door so you fill it in, thats why its flush. That newer integra, or that R, has just holes, so when you shave it, you just fill in the holes. Civics are like that teal integra, if you take out the moldings, theres just a long grove with no moldings, so they fill it in. Like the a cx civic hb has no molding so you have to fill it in.



Thats why some shaved molding are flush and some arent.

Oh yeah, car was sick till I saw the rear. This must be way back in the day, stupid conversion and black widow spoiler looks stupid as well, but I give mad props to their body guy.

Rockstar21

iTrader: (1)

i guess?

i've never met/saw anyone who paid money to get rid of door moldings only to leave an inverted version of it on the door.. the purpose of shaving moldings is to give it a smoother cleaner look... not to replace something poking out with something poking in....

im sure there are many cars with doors done like that hatch.. doesnt mean its not ugly

shaving = smooth SHAVED surface... not leaving indentions in the car.

would you shave a door handle and leave the hole were it used to be just bondo'ed up? no

but whutev mang... people spend their money how they want i guess

all i was getting at was he had put so much money into the car yet looked over something cosmetic that could easily have been done much cleaner

JDM Inspired

yeh but filling in clip holes are apart of the shaved look bro, I usually seen people just pop off the molding and get the holes filled, that so called "dent" remains but looks much cleaner without the moldings......

fobstylez

iTrader: (3)

At least you know what I'm talking about man. Not trying to start anything here, just stating the differences. And that hatch i was stating comes stock like that, cx does not come with moldings.
