Removed the body side molding and blacked out the grill

It was time consuming, but I removed all of the body side molding and painted the grill and bowtie black. I want to find a nice roll pan for the rear and a new smooth front bumper. I have the paint to black out my pillars too, I just need the weather to cooperate so I can finish it.

If you want to make SURE you want the pillars blacked out before you paint them, I can drop off some black vinyl and/or give you a hand doing them that way. Wouldn't be a big deal at all.

That looks great. I keep wanting to do that to mine, but for some reason I feel like it wont look good on my car.

Looks great Lance .I just realized my 95 RMW is the same color as your wagon with the exception of the woodgrain.Mine does not look anywhere nearly as nice yet.
Just give me 2 or 3 years at the rate I am going>

Thanks Jim. My kids hate me because I made them peel all the sticky stuff off the car that was under the trim. It's a ton of work. They used a hair dryer and my daughter got a blister on her thumb from peeling it off. Time is what it takes for sure. I want to do a roll pan and smooth front bumper, but I'd have to pay someone to paint and install them so that's what's holding me back right now.

Somebody had already painted one of the pillars ( you can see it in the photos ). Not sure why they didn't finish the job for me before I bought it. I'm going to probably paint them, but If you want to help that would be awesome.

Just let me know when. I'll give a hand for sure.

Looks REALLY good! Nice work!

That's HOT!!!

Awesome. I need to do that to my Caprice. Did the side molding come off fairly easily? I know there was adhesive left, but other than that was it pretty stress-free?
