Damn, that's one clean looking car, too bad I don't have any money to spend on getting new parts....
Maybe I could take out the siding, and try to fill in the holes to make it look like the trim really isn't there? Has anyone tried this?

Man, I drooled over that picture a number of times and never even noticed that they did that.

It wouldn't be too hard to emulate by pulling off the trim and bondoing in the indentations left. I'd carry it through to the bumper too.

The bumper is the hard part. That shape is reflected inside and out.

yes, the bumper is the hard part.. That's the problem I ran into on mine (I flushed out the trim). I need to get new bumpers now, as there's no really good way to resecure cut ABS.. I didn't think it would work, but I had to try )

That smp car upsets me everytime i see, Props to them on everything, but if your gonna shave the trim, why would you use the stock bumpers with trim? It just doesnt make any rational sense. Well thats just my opinion anyway.

it looks nice. but imho, i think the no-trim looks better when they put in a widebody kit. don't get me wrong - it looks nice either way but with the wb kit it has that smooth-flowing look to it, very clean
