Re: taking off side moldings (accord218)
You need to take apart the door panel/fender and rear seats.. There clipped in there.. You basically unclip them from the inside.

That's the correct/harder way to go about it.
I remember when I first got my car it only came with three outta six moldings, and I thought to myself damn that looks odd. So I just got a flathead screwdriver, a thin cloth and kinda popped out the moldings. Doing that only takes like 5-15mins rather then going about it the harder way. It's up to you dude on how you wanna go about it and I'm sure there's other ways to get em' off.

Yeah, great way to **** up your door/quarter panel/fender. I've heard stories of people 'pulling out' the metal because the moldings are stuck in there so well..
Take the extra time and do it the correct way. It's not that hard to take that stuff apart anyways.

Exactly. Save the time and do it the right way.
Hey, it might not damage anything if you used the screwdriver, but why risk it?

Tell me about it.. You have to get that whole side of the car painted.. Sort of a waste. Why not just buy a CX?

When it comes to **** like this... Just take the extra time to do it correctly. JDM-EJ1 has the best method in my opinion.
If you want to be lazy, take White-EG6's advice... But remember, if you don't have time to do something right, when will you have time to do it over?
