I would leave them, it gives contrast to the car.

It takes away from the lines of the car when you shave out the moldings. get rid of emblems, washer nozzles and the antenna first. If they make a flush mount typeR style molding get that.

I think it looks better with them since you cant really get rid of the molding on the front and rear bumpers which line up with them...Now if you were going with an aftermarket front and rear bumpers than I could see getting rid of them but not making it flush leave the indention just fill in the mounting holes. Or well if you got the WW RS kit well then you would have to get rid of them if you were going to use the door caps.

They are functional. They have saved me from many a door ding, and it would suck to have all that work into your body only to have it ruined by some idiot who slams their door into yours.
