I think it depends on the body style and color. For some reason, I think the pre-97 models look better with door molding than the 97+ models do. For the most part, I think they look better without it. I also think color plays a role. Some colors look better with or without the trim. I've also noticed that removal of the door trim makes the body seem taller and less long. I have a 2" lift on mine now, but I still think that removing the trim made it look visually taller.

The one above is what my white cherokee looked like too, I hated it.
This is what Im doing, my rear doors where missing trim and it just
looks hokey, so im taking all of them off and bedlining the rockers and
up to the bottom contour on the doors.
