I am indifferent on the topic. I really don't care if they are on or off. I purchased my C5 with them on and it wouldn't have made a difference if they were not installed at the time of purchase.
I think they look good with my Caravaggio rear spoiler and add to the wrap around look.
Plus, they proved "functional" when I installed my side cove screens!

Mine were on it when I bought the car and although I've been tempted many times to remove them, I think they give a bit of credence to the spears on my spoiler.

I don't think I would remove BSMs if they were on, and like the look without.

I like them both ways, and see no reason to remove mine. I'd rather repaint a BSM then deal with a damaged door any day. Plus, from what I've read they provide a small aero benefit. Who knows if its true...

I actually wanted one with those when I was in the market. I bought one without them. I think they look fine either way. Some hate them with a passion

Let me stir the pot a little - I read awhile back on this forum that even though they do provide some door ding protection their main purpose is to add additional downward forces at higher speed .............

Bought my '03 with them last summer, but really prefer the clean look. I've sat on the fence up until now, but after seeing all the pictures in this thread, I think I'm going to remove them. What is the process?
