Looks great! I'm afraid I won't like them off on my ride, for some reason i think they add to it's style. I've pondered taking them off too.

At first I didn't know what to look for, I thought you lowered it and I couldn't tell

i love the way that looks . except for when i did mine, my drivers door was painted over..............so i had a nice outline afterwards . nice job man.

So now when I open my door I'll put a good sized dent into your car door.

In that first pic, all I could think of was "Damn, I remember my ding guards being a slightly darker shade than the rest of the car. That's all that car needs is the ding guards gone..."

Then I saw the rest of the pics...
Looks freakin' great, Scott!

Thanks for the props guys...Pete is right He sold me a set of '98 ding guards to replace the cheap ugly ones that were on my car. All this because the driver side of my car had some painting done on it before I purchased it. The ding guards had been painted with the door and seemed have been installed before the door was painted. I had pulled them back some last year and it looked like a line in the paint so I gave up until I was ready to do some painting. The olders premium ding guards would look better then what I had so I was going to put them on. I took the passenger side off and was amazed at how much different it looked. Then I did the driver side about a week later and after washing the grime and wax away much to my surprise no lines!!!

Now I'm finally "Knauberized" and there is no turning back

Tip...I pulled the strips off and was able to get the 3M tape off in about 15-20 minutes max and no sore fingers. I used a BONDO brand plastic body filler spreader (3-pack No. 357) from Walmart I think. I used the smallest one of the 3 and kind of used a sawing motion while gently pulling the tap away. Worked awesome...then washed real good and then some "Goo Gone: to get the small bits of glue residue left off.

Thanks again Pete for getting me to do this

Scott
