        Hmm...your quote says they did but now they don't? I'm confused. I like the look without beause it will look better with the real reflections and not the PS.

            I like the moldings because they match very nicely with your wheels (are they Photoshoped?). If you don't plan to paint the front and black bumper also, I say leave the moldings as they are.

            while you're out there, you might as well adjust your air/fuel ratio by smell... and your tire pressure by ride height

                If you plan on getting gunmetal or black wheels then keep the molding. Keep in mind that once you take the moldings off the indent on the doors will still be there. It will not look as clean as in the photoshopped pic above.
