Crucifix

I've had a dealer looking for a 2006 Mustang GT for me for over a month now. He's just found one, and it's got all the options I asked for with the exception of the 18in rims (I can live with 17" rims). I'm going ahead with the purchase, but am curious about an option on the spec sheet I was faxed - it's called '961 BODYSIDE MOULDINGS'. Some research tells me that this is a fleet-only option, but I can't seem to find any photos of these mouldings.

So the question is, what do these mouldings look like (i.e. does anyone have photos?)? If I don't like them, can I remove them without any fuss?

if its the fleet moldings, the look a bit odd...very short, on door only I think...the hockeystick crease prevents full length moldings from being a possibility.

theres a very old post in here somewhere with a pic. my biggest worry would be if fleet, was it likely a rental? I'm afraid I'd have to pass if it were a v8 rental- if it has more than 5 miles on it, its probably been hammered...if it was ordered thru fleet but never made it to rental place, that would be a unusual gt. good luck

Thanks for the reply ford4v429. It's definitely a new car. Bodyside mouldings are an option we can choose (at least in Canada) and this car happens to have it.

For anyone else with this issue, I've received a response from a post on the allfordmustang forums stating that the mouldings can be heated up with a blow dryer and slowly peeled off without leaving any adhesive residue.

I'm going ahead with the purchase and will ask the dealer if they will remove them for me - if not (or if they want to charge) I'll just do it myself.
