    I have my sides molded on my 4dr...

    As for molding the rear, yes and no. Do it if your going show, but if its a daily driver then dont. Who molds a stock bumper anyways? I was going to mold my rear, but then I realized that I have to remove the rear bumper every now and then to have access to my rear air vavles, so no molded rear for me. And if anyone molds the front, it better be a trailer queen with a very careful driver.

      I dont like any body kits I like the it looking basicaly stock. But I already shaved the front bumper so there is not that black molding that sticks out. And I shaved the rear emblem and thats it so far.

          If you drive your car everyday, im going to say no. The vibrations will rip the body work apart. If its strickly a weekend or show car, go for it.

              Post pictures of the front bumper molding thing shaved on it, I'd like to see it. I have never seen that done before so it'd be something new.

              If you go with a body kit, you can mold the rear a lot easier and it'd look better.

              Don't mold a stock bumper.

                i would never mold a stock bumper anyway. unless u are using a lip kit that will be ok but be really careful. if you got a full body kit i would mold the rear and sides, maybe a front. if its trailered or just a weekend thing. a kid in my car club has a cavalier he molded front/rear fender flares to the body then molded them to the front/rear bumpers which the bumpers are urethane and did the sides as well and they are urethene. he hit somebody in the front cracked the fender and the bumper. fixed it, then hit a racoon cracked the front bumper. BAD IDEA, then he had to paint the whole front clip to match. what im trying to sday is that dont mold anything unless its a weekend car or trailer queen. maybe a lip thats all.

                  I know I have already replied in here, but the only one I would mold is the rear and thats only if the bumper is an aftermarket one. Do not mold a stock, that would look hideous.

                  Here's a nice mold job on a trailer queen that was at a car show.. it's crazy. Headlights molded into the body, fenders molded to the front, everything all molded! Bunch of fiberglass and bondo! haha.
