Has anybody put the body side mouldings on there TSX? I like the look of the TSX without the moulding,but I hate door dings more. If anybody has some,could you post a pic.

I got them put on mine. I've been meaning to take some pics but haven't found time. I'll try to post them this week. I like how they look on the car.

Mine are coming in tomorrow.
The online instructions don't show exactly how close to the edge of the door they should be mounted.

Do you have any suggestions for the fore and aft positioning?

Mine came with them dealer installed & I'm still trying to decide if I'm going to remove them.

If you're looking to save yourself from door dings, these aren't the units to do that. They are so low on the doors they're barely above the top of the rocker panel & won't do *anything* to protect from dings.

I seriously doubt these could look good. Look forward to seeing the pics.

The best door ding protection I have come up with is to not park near other cars, or always select corner spots. It's worked like a charm thus far. As HeavyDuty has correctly stated, they are placed too low to be effective on the TSX. A nice, high SUV will ding you right over those moldings. The best bet is to avoid making it physically possible for your car door to get hit.

i dont think the body side moldings look bad at all. here they are on my tsx:

Thanks guys. Yeah I won't be getting those mouldings. There do look good,but real useless for the purpose. I know the best door ding protection is to not park beside another car. But I live in Canada and when it is -30C outside parking close to the store ,restaurant or whatever is mighty temping.

Yup, way to low on the car to be of any use IMO. Which is also IMO why they don't look bad. Move them up another 6 and 8 inches and things change.

HeavyDuty

Yeah, lol, if you moved them to the beltline of the car, they'd look like dorsal fins.

Double Park all the time to prevent door dings like what i do =)
