Removing Side Molding from DII

[Think]

Has anyone removed the side molding from their DII? I guess all it does is protect your car door from other car doors. How does it look off? I see many discos without this plastic strip. Here is a pic to show you what I'm talking about.

Ive been thinking of taking the molding off and getting the lowers Line-Xed. Like this Photoshopped, but not so shiny..

Thanks for posting a pic of my rig at the top!

I have seen both, and think the Line-X(or whatever brand) looks fine WITH the moulding in place. If you remove it, you will have a thick line where the Line-X stops. On a dark colored vehicle it might not be as noticeable, but on my white truck, I'd prefer to have it tuck right up to the moulding.

Just my .02

i personaly like that plastic side moulding i would add it to my truck if i had some spare money to burn on it and didnt want anything else. But i dont like the ones with the chrome inserts.

Dap flares on mine.

And good point about keeping the molding if I Line-X. The molding would make a good transistion. thanks!
