Never been a fan of a trimless A70. Does not look right, gives the car too much of a camaro look, and makes it look longer.

There were 2 at a local meet on friday. They looked pretty good in person I was suprised.

It looks nice. Make the car looks more like a shark.

Until you reach the rear moulding, or front bumper, then it just doesn't look right IMO...

I with him, it dosing look right, looks long and bland. needs the trim to give the doors texture.

This one??

The shaved look is pretty nice. I still prefer it with trim though, but looks good without it too.

I second that.

Hells yeah.

I prefer the cars WITH trim, but body colored. Not like what's on my car right now. Grey striped FTL.

mmmm........trimless..... optical orgasm absorbed threw my eye.

i love the sleek stealthyness it gives the car.

grey trim FTW...

the trim (moulding) is a main part of lines of the car (turn signals are the same size, wraps all the way around)

Also protects your door from dings and makes the car look less cheap (IMHO)

BIC's car is the ONLY one I kinda like

 

[86_sports_1jz]

yea thats true now that you think about it and seeing some of those pics makes me want to keep my molding. you guys think the dark red molding will go well w/ a pearl white body color?

No trim is teh weak sauce..

I'd have to agree that the trim seems to be an integral part of the cars exterior.

It might be different if the side moldings were "tacked on" looking, but the designers clearly crafted the body with the moldings in mind.

It looks like something is missing without the trim. It's not like smoothing out a '49 merc.

Kudos to those who obviously did a ton of work to get the metal smoothed out, and filled in the valleys where the molding sat, but it's not my cup of tea.
