I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

I hate shaved/filled side moldings, but I love base model eg moldings. In fact, I took mine off and are having the clip holes filled and smoothed/painted to look like that ^

my side moldings are shaved/filled dont really mind them.....i hate my molded on side skirts...but i bought my car for cheap with a full kit...and i dont really feel like spending a shitload of money just to have them taken off an repainting both sides of my car.

i love to see EG's with moldings like the Tank up there ^^^

Totally deleted moldings I don't think look right. I like the way Tank's is.

it looks good with just the holes filled in, otherwise i'd go for the thin-style moldings
