Ahh sugar honey iced tea! It was there a second ago when I posted it I promise lol. You can see it in my thumb nail picture, Well either way it's the thin trim that runs along the door to half way out the rear panels. Didn't wanna dabble into them if they were plug holes, always Give me trouble

If you want to see what it looks like, just look at a 2005. GM removed them from the car that year

My car is going to get fully repainted in about... 3-4 years. I'm going to also remove them when that happens

I agree, I really like the look of the clean sides. But it was nice to have a little door protection while the car was a daily driver.
