take out side moldings.

I was thinking about doing the same with mine, all I find them moldings do is cause a bunch of rust problems...

Looks great without moldings but you will get lots of dents from people hitting your car while opening their doors at tight parking spaces that's why moldings are there to protect your car; many new cars now they do not have them and you have to pay for them like my 08 CRV.

The right way to do it is weld metal not bondo which may crack and will ake car heavier as well.

correct. sorta. Your taking plastic out and putting bondo or metal in. so it;s going to gain some weight.

But yes welding sheet metal is more than likely what i am going to do when i start to work on the EXT of my CB.

Not too many sedans shave the moldings. and i will probably fill in the bumpers too to finish the look off.

i took mine off but i just filled the holes not the whole thing i kinda liked the body lines to make it look a little but i don't looking at J3wman car i am thinking of filling it before i paint it

Hell I kind of like the way it looks like yours is sitting now. What size wheels do you have and what suspension are you sitting on?

Please dont just fill it in with bondo. And by the way the correct term is plastic filler not bondo. I can already see this. Your going to slam your door and the filler is going to come off. I highly recomend either welding or using the glue for metal. Check out this tread. click me

[bcjammerx]

be best to put some thin metal in there to take up the gap, bondo the small seams, then repaint. I wouldn't use that thick/much of bondo like that...it isn't meant for that.

[ikayto]

in for wavey lines galore.

I think completely erasing them won't look nice if on a sedan but if a couple eeeh go for it. But do it the proper way. If you've read the stickys it saids something about taking your time, because if you rush most likey in the long run it will be crap, take your time with it and you will see great sucess.


Plus how can you remove your moldings when there are such beautiful CB7's such as ikayto, I mean just look at it .......woowww . (Above sig^)
