Opinions on side moulds

[EA2BA]

Here is the current state of my car:



Now I am thinking remove the side moulds and fill in the doors, but what are peoples suggestions.

I will be keeping the crease along the top where the handles go.

If anyone cares to photoshop my car with
- no moulds
- moulds finally filled in
- moulds removed and doors smoothed out

[snypereb]

Fill the moulds and leave them on there it breaks up the outside of the car rather than having a big flat door. And get some rims for that thing already!!

[EA2BA]

I have some EB/ED optional 16" rims to go on the car, just have to clean them up.

[snypereb]

mmmmmmmmmmmmmm get 18's. 17's or 18's would set you car off!!

[EA2BA]

but 17's and 18's arent cheap, so 16's for now, 17's later.

Cant think what 17's I would want anyway.

[snypereb]

Ypu should of bought my old ones!

[LTDHO]

Fill the moulds.

So Jase, ya starting on body again huh?

[EA2BA]

Yeah they are finally starting to annoy me again, so time to do something

[EFFalcon]

deffinately keep the moulds.
fill em like originally planned.

i say remove the moulds and fill them in smooth with the door. the front and back bumpers dont have the moulds so the side moulds are ruining the clean look of the car. after that you should get a re spray in something bright and unique, gotta be a BAcolour tho! then some BA 18" wheels and your car will be even more EA2BA!

Get them colour coded....im biased

Agree.

BA XR8 mags.. mmmm...

Them moulds really do stick out dont they. I say take them off only fill them if really necessary

[Dezza]

I reckon keep them on and fill them in. That would look mint.

[Damo]

I don't know it's your car ?

[Tiga_EL]

Take em off and put BA ones on there, it will go with the whole EA2BA scheme Hasnt been done yet either i dont think.

[SwarvJarv]

i say leave the top line but smooth the bottom of the doors to suit the front and rear bars.......

eg..

Its going to be either BA ones or complete fill is my current thinking :monkes:

[Racecraft]

I'd fill the bottom only, leaving the top edge to line up with the front and rear bars

I would do it like in pic 2

The bottom of the moulds blends into the door, and the top bit sticks out, will look like the kit continues over the door

BTW: If your going to fill them, dont use bog lol,(when the mould bends the bog cracks and comes off) I learnt the hard way when i was trying it on the ED i couldnt thing of anything else (bendable) to use so i didnt end up doing it to mine

Any way good luck whichever way you go!

if i were you ide flat fill the cut away completely and place the BA/BF door protectors on, the think ones, if u decide to do that make sure the lengths of the protector will match a EA doors.

good luck
