Well, she is essentially done. Just not sure if I should put the rubber side molding back on. Any thoughts?

Looks good man!
Would you consider putting a more detailed location in your profile? I'm sure I've probably asked before where you are from, but can't keep everyone straight in my head.

I've lived here in Bay City all my life, except for a 9month stint in Florida back in 1990-91. Turned 21 while I was down there (lots of partying).

Thanks for the input!
I'll probably drive it without for a little while.
I'll be putting it away for the winter soon anyway.
I will post a few more pictures ASAP.

SA side trim looks good on an SA, FB side trim looks good on an FB. It's a bumper thing, the trim is designed to work with the bumpers on these two different models.
While the design was a little awkward on the SA because the bumper and side trim didn't match well, the Mazda designers fixed this with the nice continuous lines of the FB.
Leaving the trim off either model all together leaves the bumper trim hanging out like a sore thumb. You can paint the bumper too, but that makes the car look like so many other "modern" cars and destroys the uniqueness of the original design.
In my opinion. But Donny's SA does look pretty mean without the trim.

Just remember csmstudly that the moldings will save you from door dings. Especially taking that much time on the body, and living in Bay City where it seems most drivers don’t know how to park .

I know what you mean. I am afraid to leave her in a public parking space.
