Small update.

Since I had the rockers and door moldings off I decided to freshen them up.

For what it cost the trim paint in the green can works really well.

How did you get the side moldings off. I've been wanting to get mine off aswell as the side skirts so I can respray them and get rid of this color matched nonsense.

Take the door panels off and remove one bolt near the latch then squeeze the push pops on the inside. You have to remove the rear interior to get to the back, including the seat belts and the ones on the front fenders I managed to squeeze my hands behind the inner fender wells and pop them loose.

If I was you I would get new ones and sell the ones you have on H-T, since alot of people like the color matched moldings.

Also, I think I saw you at the Q-T on big bend a few nights ago.

Small preview...

Yeah that was prolly me if it was a Midori hatch. I'm not gonna sell them because the idiot I bought it from resprayed the jdm thin side moldings so I'm prolly gonna hit them with 1000 grit and primer/spray them. Do you know the exact name of the paint you used?
