I going 'with'.
For a very simple reason - they'll hopefully stop some clumsy oaf denting your lovely straight bodywork with their door after parking a bit too close.

Overriders ditched? well that one was easy Can I have them then?  ;D Without - cars look so much cleaner without side trims Amazons are the exception though - the flanks look far too heavy without the trims, unless in a very high gloss, highly reflective colour ie black - Loon's is the only one I've seen which imho looked right without the trims |

With  Oh, and I would keep the overriders too. |

"With" the trim, "Without" the Badge and overriders, I like it without as well, With screams Retro at me, especially on the those Steels Without feels as though its should have Big Chrome smoothie Rims or similar to really carry it off (IE as in "That" amazon estate) Depends what look you are ultimately aiming for ? Cool car whatever |

thought I would ask the experts, you lot!!
Damn that car is nice & straight. stick with it stock, leave everything on and just enjoy it, maybe just a tiny cut of the springs or a set of Volvo Rally springs if you can find them!!!!!

It's too slab sided without the chrome. I'd keep the overiders too.

i think if you're gonna keep those wheels, put the trim back. If you're gonna get some new custom wheels, leave them off.

I'm amused that if you were after a landslide vote in one direction to help you decide we haven't exactly helped! 33 plays 34 at the moment!
