Shaving drip rails
.... I'm thinking about it. Before some purist starts wagging their finger at me let me say I dont think altering the looks of a ho-hum Malibu is gonna send me to the gates of hell ... anyhow it looks subtely cool in my book and will fit right in with "resto" look of my planned build.
I decide not to go with the SS454 over-used car. I do not think the country will miss another SS clone. So my questions... anyone done it? I am talking a 70 Chevelle and want to avoid any problems with the modification. Any input appreciated. I am also planning on shaving the side marker lights.

Well if you want to shave them go for it. It's your car and I have no problem with you making it what you want. I really think they are a pain in the a** and the car does have a cleaner look without them.
Unfortunately I haven't done it so I can't offer any advice there.

this may help
hey ive never done but is looks easy if you have a spot weld drill bit. just take off the chrome rubber strips. and see if you can see the spot welds. if so just drill them all out and they should come off. you may have to weld some seams up where they had the caulk, not sure tho, just make sure that the car is not in the weather because the drip rails do serve a purpose. with out them more water will get in your quarter panels and bottom or doors.
