This is just a digital re-touch I did to see if I like the modification or not.
The white color doesn't seem to have as much of an impact as the thread with the red colored car.
Anyways here are before and after pictures for others interested before ripping off their moulding.

On the lighter color cars the chrome seems to look better than on the bright red, the deep black, or the grey.

I am a minority here because I like chrome on black cars. On a white car it is barely noticable.

I think that the chrome strip breaks up the lines of the body. Looks better w/o regardless of the color

I like the mild chrome on our cars, but what I really hate is those ugly full chrome aftermarket mirrors and chrome trimmings for the headlights and taillights.

I'm still debating if I should dechrome the strips, I actually don't mind it there
Out Of Control!!
They even look like stickers. Grosss, but the wife won't let me rip them off. Ugggh, why did I ask??

Hey guys 
i got off work a little early today and decided to try this "demolding" mod all by myself
well safe to say i luuuv the way my C looks even more now
i know i know theres those who prefer the strip but i honestly think it looks sportier yay !! Was a bit of pain in the a** since the fishing line i had was a bit too think so i had to wrap it around like 5 times so it wouldnt break every 2 inches ....but well worth the effort of an entire 10 minutes !!!!
ps hopefully i can get my clear side markers on tomorrow whoohooo
