Side Chrome trimming
 
Just wondering if anybody knows how to remove the side chrome trimming ona 71-73 mustang... that goes across the door and onto the front fenders.... I think it looks ALOT better without it.. and my stang has WAY too much chrome on it its rediculous.... Thanks

Just my .02, but I like the factory chrome. It breaks up the largeness of our great big old cars.

today i removed the trimming over the wheels on the fenders... i just gotta find out how to get the side line one off.... and will there be any holes to fill???

i think the chrome on the sides makes it look too flashy... im makin a muscle car out of it... not a flashy nice grocery getter (I dont know how to spell grocery gorccerriee goersnta).... lol

Without the trimming the paint looks alot better, and id love to get rid of the trimming around the vynle but i doubt its a good idea to do that lol

well unless they changed it from my year to yours, the trimming is held on with these annoying little posts. no holes to fill, but you will have posts sticking about 1/8 inch out. I'll pull off my corner tomorrow and post pics for you.
