Default Acura Integra - ITR & RS.LS.GSR - Side Molding - Body Work or Stock?

ITR Side Molding or Body Work? -- No Black Strip
---------------------------------------------------------





RS.LS.GSR Side Molding or Body Work? -- Black Strip
-------------------------------------------------------------








i was just wondering if it was stock or some minor body work. It really looks like the black molding could just be taken off, and the body alone has the little bump/raise on the side. I want to repaint one of my integras and i wanted to try it but not if it wouldnt turn out easily.

PLEASE GIMMIE SOME FEEDBACK... ThX

^^It won't go 'in', it'll be smooth with the body line but there'll be holes you have to fill.

That's a super common mod, if you searched you would've seen a whole bunch of info about it. You have to weld in little metal plates behind each hole and then fill them with filler. And yes ITRs do come stock without the moldings. Civics go 'in' when you remove the moldings, but not Integras.

Yea, weld little plates behind each hole, fill them, sand them smooth, and it'll look like just like those ITR pics you got.
