Side molding question
Oaky...I have seen alot of 92-95 civics that have had their side molding taken off and where they were, there are no holes or anything. Basically just a place where they were but still the color of the car...if you understand what I am saying. I was wondering upon removing the side moldings from a 92-95 civic, is there any holes where the side molding were held in place on the body or are they basically just glued to the side of the car. If I were to remove mine, would there be any holes behind them and will the paint where they were be the same as the car? Like the white hatch seen here https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=943941. Thanks.

I've seen people take these off and there where holes, so they might of used some tuff to cover those holes up on that thread you posted.
Even on some hatches i've seen holes.
So expect holes if you are going to take them off, me i'm just going to leave the strips on and paint over mine, when I go to re-paint my car.

It's based on the model. 92-95 hatches in the CX and VX models, have no moldings, and no holes. The DX and Si have moldings, that attach to the car with existing holes, and plastic retaining clips. The holes are square, and are placed on the front fender, door, and rear quarter panel.

They must have been added as an option for your particular car.
