Default Thanks Zeta products for the side door moldings

Here are some pics of side door moldings from Zeta products. I dont want this to turn out to be a bash on ruining the sportiness of the tc, I am just extending my appreciation to Angelo from Zeta products for a great product as well as great customer service and fast shipping. Install was a breeze just peel back and apply. I personally like the look of it and the function. I wont be getting another car until I finish grad school and start working full-time, so I got to make sure I protect my car. I already have a little dent on the door, hopefully this will help prevent others. (parking at college campuses suck so many cars so close together and everyone in a hurry so bang da door )

they don't look too bad, however i prefer that the ends of the door molding follow the contours of the front and rear wheel wells on the fenders. It flows much better with the body lines that way than designing it like an arrow tip.

Not for me, but they don't look too bad for what you want them for.

thanks for the replies. Its kinda funny when i was back home in hawaii i saw multiple tcs with the moldings and now that i am back in cal i dont see any lol partly b/c cal is bigger. I was just wondering is it just my luck or do many other members have dents on their doors?

Well, I have a dent on my passenger side rear quarter panel which could have been completely prevented if I had these. But hey, I just think the tC looks better without the moldings.

I had those on my old car (mazda 626), and they didn't do squat, although granted those were standard from the factory...

So far the tC seems to have a fairly decent skin when it comes to dents (the mazda skin would dent easily).... and the girl who owns the carport next to mine likes to slam her door outwards without regard, but so far she can't seem to dent me (I hate her, despite the beautifully tan and well-proportioned brazilian body).

I think it works; when I looked at the pic, I wasn't paying attention (I almost thought you were talking about inside door moldings or something), and thought to myself, "Okay, what is this thing about, I don't see anything different... wait a minute".

wow, sorry, but i honestly had to stare at the pic for like 5 minutes to figure out what was different about it from mine. doesn't look bad, and it seems functional.

I dont like em on a stock car.
They looked nice on someones SW though.

Im thinking about getting them for looks on mine.

door moldings on a completely stock car makes it look more plain and ordinary.

door moldings on a modified car, an extra mod to make your car stand out from the others.

Might be a nice idea if they were magnetic instead of sticky tape, then just slap 'em on only when and while needed.
