Door Trim - On or Off??

[Huw]

Found the external trim that sticks to the door, but cant decide whether to stick them back on.

Has anyone stuck these back on if so whats best to use? I got some trim tape from a local motor factors but it not very 'sticky'.

I found a before picture of the car and one that was taken recently after rebuilding it and I am still undecided.

My vote is leave them off

 

[RIDDLER]

I agree. Looks better off!

 

[Rob Gaskin]

Off, less aggro and neater.

I like them on - with black bumpers the line follows better and it's very period.

Off with the rubber!

In your before pic you are missing a small piece ahead of the rear arch so, if not a full set available then off!
The metal inserts in the originals are easily bent when taking them off, so they may look a bit "wrinkly" if you reinstate...

Thanks for the comments and views so far

I do have the full set and they are straight and unbent, so I might put them back.
