Not to sound harsh, but that's why I don't ask opinionated questions. Because, that is exactly what you will get...everyone's opinion. Now, I do understand this is a forum and us guys like to have fun and so forth. But, it's your car. Me personally, I'm doing exactly what you are doing on my Chevelle...shaving the drip rails and flush mounting the front and rear glass. I like it and that's all that matters. I'm more of a custom guy anyway. Either way will look good. It's evident that you want to do it. So go ahead.:thumbsup:
