Looks great, baldyloxs.

I would just be afraid to park it anywhere. But it does look great.

Oh, the door guards? I think that's what they are referrenced as. Sadly they sit too low for any real protection of dings. God forbid if a truck parks next to you too close. They don't work
I'm actually torn between the "clean" look and with them on. The clean look, looks...well...clean, lol. With them on, the car looks...hmm, sleek, for the lack of a better word....but I like them both. I guess you could always have one side with them on and the other without...just for me, lol.

over


I'm not being any help since I'm undecided[]

thanks guys ![sm=thanx.gif] Well ManGo got me on the right track he said us a heat gun.Well we used a hair dryer,and started at the pointed end.Heated for about 30 seconds I started to peel.(using a pair of gloves so I didnt burn my hands up) Then just went on down the strip pulling while she heated,it only took about 5 min to do the whole car.I then used lighter fluid to remove residue left over.I love it exept for it is fadded a bit underneath those spears.(who would of thought? I figured it would be darker than the rest.)So hopefully after a few more time of claying the car it will come back.

Ok, I've been looking at both again and I've come to the conclusion that the "shaved" look, looks really good on your Charger imo, Baldy.

Man thats a totally different look, I like it... but I'm also there.

If another claying doesn't meet your expectations get some polishing cream, add a little elbow grease and presto it as good as new.

Mapson02,

There are NO side door guards -- look at his posted photo, then the new one -- see, there are no rubber door guards along the doors...
