I removed the Body Side Moldings this weekend. Then buffed, polished, and wax the whole truck. Looks so much better.



You cannot see where they were.

While I agree it does look better without those moldings, mine actually do get used. If car doors don't hit my running boards first, they most often hit the molding next.
