Michael Title: Re: Should it stay or should it go. Post by: cal-look 56 on April 27, 2009, 20:37:02 pm I dont think it looks bad at all. But if its gonna loose the trim it needs to loose the bumbers too.

Post by: Lids on April 27, 2009, 22:06:09 pm I am beginning to get annoyed with seeing pictures of resto cal's on this forum, Glenn sort it out or move over to restowagen. :P
Title: Re: Should it stay or should it go. Post by: Black Sheep on April 27, 2009, 22:16:28 pm Thats Quite an old pic not only have the ribbed bumpers gone since then but so have the 61 ish rear lights , porker seats and the deep six's from the front ::)
The roofs been bolted down now too . As for the trim all in good time , Im more concerned with getting the box in and bolted up ;) Title: Re: Should it stay or should it go. Post by: Russell on April 27, 2009, 23:08:09 pm why should he remove it ? great looking car

Post by: Jason Foster on April 28, 2009, 05:14:00 am I think he should remove it and put some Red turn signals on top of the fenders... :P
Title: Re: Should it stay or should it go. Post by: Shubee2 (DSK) on April 28, 2009, 05:15:24 am Well it really Depends If You Want To Call it A Cal Look Or a Resto Cal like most cars are today, On a Real Cal Look Chrome trim and Bumpers belong in the Catagorey With Roof Racks,Extra Narrowed Beams Mud Flaps and all the other Bolt on Crap, A Real Cal Look is all Business without all The Bling Bling and Plenty of Horsepower to Back Up its Plain Clean Look (Shubee is Now Ducking all the Rocks Being Thrown at him LOL) Just My 2 Cents cuz I spent the Rest
Title: Re: Should it stay or should it go. Post by: Rennsurfer on April 28, 2009, 05:32:13 am why should he remove it ? great looking car That car looks great... I agree with Russell. But it would also look good if only the bumpers were swapped for t-bars and/or the trim was removed. Any way... it'll look nice. The beautiful aspect of our Cal Look cars is that are no rules. The only rule that needs to be remembered is that it's YOUR car. Do as you wish. Personally, I like Glenn's car as it sits in the picture. Carry on. Title: Re: Should it stay or should it go. Post by: jamiep_jamiep on April 28, 2009, 08:04:58 am I think it looks pretty good as is...
Title: Re: Should it stay or should it go. Post by: Neil Davies on April 28, 2009, 12:48:54 pm Ooh, difficult! With how different the grooved trim on a split is, it's cool to have it. On the other hand, I prefer cars without trim (I've already sold the trim from my split) and it does fit into the cal look theme better.
But, big question - would YOU have the balls to weld up the holes on a completed, painted running car? ;) Title: Re: Should it stay or should it go. Post by: Shubee2 (DSK) on April 28, 2009, 13:22:22 pm Car look Bitchen as it is I would Only Dechrome it if you were Redoing the Car I would not do it just because of the Chrome.. Leave It and Start A New Project ;D ;D
Title: Re: Should it stay or should it go. Post by: vwcab on April 28, 2009, 13:32:31 pm Yep,leave it as it is. ;)
Title: Re: Should it stay or should it go. Post by: Russell on April 29, 2009, 11:11:45 am In fact remove the chrome and send it to me ;D
