Default ditch side moldings? yay or nay

I'm torn what's the GMT 900's worldview on looks with or without.

It's SLT and has color matched everything front rear bumper door handles imperial blue metallic on a 3/5 drop with denali 20's.

On the NBS and OBS trucks they look great without I'm hung cause once you start your ***** deep and no going back (easily that is)

leave it on. like u said, the nbs/obs looks great w/o it, BUT they have a body line, where as the gmt900s dont.

imho anything outside of the rcsb look funny without them on the 900 series. plus, they aid in door ding prevention.

Left the body side moldings on mine, but removed the letters and bowtie. Small difference and cleaner, but I like it better.

My buddy stripped his Tahoe down and it looked good but it was on 22" black slides and black windows, silver birch in color

I think it looks better without, but I also think that the sides look better without dents, so mine are staying

Guess I'll leave them I debadged it after I owned it 2 hours so all the badges are already in a landfill. I hate door dings but I'll walk 3 miles before I park beside people so it's not quite as big of a worry but it's still there.

I took mine off and do just that. Either I park out in the north 40 or I find the nicest vehicle thats closer and park next to that .
