I seen a csvt yestarday and the gaurds were much bigger than what I have on the se. They looked stock but I never knew they were different on the cars. They seemed to be bigger towards the back of the car and then get narrow/ kind of pointy towards the front.

Is this how all csvts are supposed to be before they are knauberized?
 
There are two different styles of door ding gaurds. I think 98s had the decent looking ones. Then 99/00 had the flat ones... or something like that, idk.
 
You are correct Robert.

99/2000 style:

Yup thats them on the 98. Question answered. Thanks again guys! It's always fun learning about the contour.
 
Sorry, it's going to take more than a cookie to get that Mirko from me. :laugh:

I'd let it go if you bought the whole car. :D
It would have to be a decent price too, I'm not letting it go that cheap.

Actually, I think there are 3 different styles. Mine is different from those two.

Yup. Yours are probably a cross between the two. Raised plastic like the 98 picture LUCA posted, but similar shape to the 99/00 flat rubber ones.

There was a big mix of ding guards over the years depending on model year and trim level. By the time 99/00 rolled around, they were all just fugly looking.
