Well, I took the side mouldings off, ALL @!#$ GREAT and than at the passenger door I find this.. WTF... Went to body shop and they said they would re do that part for a 125$.. DAMMIT...
Take a Gander.
Some new pics also though...
And now the bad paint...
...

I had the same problem a while ago when I first took my mouldings off.. Its something about the white I tell ya.. I had to get mine repainted too.

just leave teh moldings on....
I don't like the moldings though, it looks sleek with out them on, and its only one door. I am getting it done.. lol. I am just pissed they come out all good, and than the last door. WHAM. I am struck with some bad luck. lol.
that was the only reason i had my car repainted.. i took my passenger molding off and discovered cheap bodywork.. the molding ripped the paint an bondo right off the car lol

what kind of rims are those motegi mr7's and are they white or silver? i have the same car but an 03 and have mr7's but they are silver.
did you buy that car used? looks to me like thats not the result of fading... that cars been repainted... maybe an accident in its history?
You see thats the weird thing, I bought this car NEW.. I mean, I don't get it either.. I am kinda pissed about it, but what can I do.. Just take it to a paint shop and get it redone.. I am bummed... But it looks nice with them off... Painted + Lowered... Soon. lol.
Yeah, those are WHITE Motegi's.. I love them. Everyone here in my town does too...
! Yay!
Atleast yours in painted under the molding.

yea I got that same crap on my passenger side too
just finish doin your body stuff (kit or whatever) then just send the car into paint and get it all painted along with the crummy overspray spot
I hope to do this before the bash this year
im takin mine off because of my graphics? kinda scared now?!?!?!?!? but will it matter for mine????? let me know what u think!!! lora
i never had problems with mine. matched perfectly underneith.
had the same problem. i hit a deer when i first got my car. and i took off the drivers side it was fine. took off the pass side and it had a big azz line cause the stock color is a lil bit darker than what they used. definately noticeable. kinda @!#$ty when it happens to cars as new as ours...

Yeah it is, but I will probably just go with that dudes advice and get a kit, than get ALL of it painted lol... I dunno, though still kinda mad about it.
dam your complaining about a free graphics job ?!?!?!?!?!
LOL
if its just the white dull paint , id grab a can of duplicolor clear coat , and mask the area off , about a extra 1" around the non cleared area , spray it with the clear , give it a few days to dry then lightly color sand it and it should look alot better
its worth the try , and if you mess it up you didnt spend a whole
