well im missing a trim piece on my door and i was wanting to see what itd look like if i just took off the door trim and sanded it down some and painted it..or anything similar would be good just want some ideas

 

Personally, on an otherwise stock body FC, no side molding looks like hell - makes the car look like a jellybean. Sure, If you have a widebody or some kit, then the trim isn't needed as much, but I don't like it without trim.

It's all about personal taste though, some people love it.

 

man that does look like hell

 

Very ugly, IMO. It makes the car look fat.

 

guess i need to get on with getting a trim piece on there

 

lol i second the jellybean theory

 

Stock body needs the trim for a finished look IMO.

 

umm yea definitely needs trim

 

Just find the trim piece -they look great IMO

 

woooofff...the black one has the bumper molding shaved as well. looks terrible

 

i told you, i have a piece of trim.

 

thats right !! ..i was just looking at alternatives as well

 

i like my trim to be clean and shaved

 

I took my trim off of both sides and switched to S5 bumper and sidemarker trim, but no trim in front of, behind, or on the doors. (if that makes sense.)

Edit: Forgot pics. Sorry, She's dirty.

 

doesnt make sense...post some pics and that'll explain it a little better i think lol

 

Edited my last post with pics. Make sense now?

 

matter fact its exactly the answer i was looking...do u like urs like that ?

 

Yes, I love it.

 

then i might just do that...whats the best way to get the adhesive from the trim off?

 

I used a scraper with a razor blade in it. That crap is a pain to get off. Next I sanded it and then painted it. I wasn't worried about it looking perfect, so I didn't go too crazy with the sand paper/paint. It might be easier to get the adhesive off if you use some type of solvent.

Edit: You will probably go through a lot of razor blades btw. And wear safety glasses; those things like to go everywhere if/when they explode.

 

Pull the middle trim off and then buy some body trim adhesive remover at your auto parts store. It won't damage your paint like scraping it off with a knife will.

 

If I had known they made that at the time I would've used it!

 

I like my trim washed and waxed

 

i think your the only one that got that joke!! kudo's to you sir.

all those cars look like *** becuase they are stock... stock ride height, wheels

Removing the side ones on S4 will be funky because the front and rear are black.
S4 moldings should be dime a dozen.
