Removed them this morning. I don't know why but it just made the Yaris look like a bumper car to me. Much better now.

I've checked a lot of pictures of everyone elses cars here and they don't all have them, but on my Yaris there are these thin black strips of some hard rubbery stuff on the edges of my door and also around the wheels. They're attached to the paint but I'd like to remove them if possible to help my car look a little cleaner.

If anyone can give me any tips on this I'd really appreciate it. I don't have pictures of it as it is pretty dark out right now, but if that helps I'll post some later.

Look at the thin lighter blue strips that run around the front and back wheel wells, and the *vertical* strip on the door edge. I've contemplated removing mine, but still have them on. They were on the car when I bought it, and I didn't pay extra for it.
