Unlike the car, they're still making those - so you can always pick up a nice low mileage new one.

Limekist - I like the original body side molding - it's sharp!

Thanks biz. I struggled with the decision to keep the side moldings. The body shop really didn't want to put them back on, they wanted to leave them off and fill the holes. People say cars looks better w/o them but I figure they came on the car from the factory so I'm keeping them. Besides, functionally they are great.
