heres my opinion on the whole door cap controversy

get the door caps if you have stock skirts

leave them off if you have aftermarket

your car looks a lot better now, just looks like its missing something.

good job. were they already painted your color?

Honestly and its not me being biased about no door caps but I like the way it looks without em. Maybe some brighter pictures would help to see em better.

Hehe, not to sound dumb, but what are door caps? I was looking at it and didn't find anything missing. Please show me comparison pics please. Thanks.

You would..... weirdo!

It looks like something is missing to me, but then again I look at my car everyday and it has door caps so that would make sense. At any rate, it looks better than not having anything at all.

I think no caps looks better. Looks more aftermarket, but kinda like widebody-ish. I have blitz type 2's, and have had people say, get the caps. fuck the caps. I like 'em without caps. I just need to get the sideskirts on. They've been sitting around forever.

you got it backwards imo.

if you have caps and 95-96 skirts, you can barely tell that you have any. you can get away without any on the 95-96

the 97-99 stick out too much for you too not have anything next to the door. the 95-96 dont even really flare out

sup lenny, yea.. i quit that job.. im gone... i got a new job that kicks ass and is within my major. ill call you up sometime soon.

as for the door caps, they are the piece in the middle of the door. its between the two raised pieces of the skirts... just look at my doors compared to fauch's.. you'll see the difference....

as for me, i think they both look good, door cap or none, but i prefer the look w/o better because it gives the car a slight difference than stock, but not too flashy.. ill get some more pics up later
