Took this photo at a recent All Chevy Show and cannot stop looking at it! There are some angles that a Vette just looks incredible. The stance and stealth, the lines and flow. Still after all these years it is a "looker".

I know this is personal preference but I absolutely hate the body side moldings on these cars. It totally ruins the flow of the side of the car.

Can the body side moldings be removed? I don't like them on my car either.
