Okay, I did some PS work for a fella memba on the boards earlier, I've been contemplating debadging my 5dr corsa, but also removing the rub strips on the doors!
First Question is are the door strips just stuck on aswell or are they're held on by pins?
Second Question, If I go ahead and remove the stickers would I be able to re-apply them should I need to sell to a non-car enthusiast?
and finally, would people recommend I do this minor mod? and is it worth it?
Thnx

i had a red LS and the strips were just stuck on, but with it being red the paint behind them was basically new so it showed up no matter how much red T-cutting i tried
i dont think you will be able to reapply them either, although u can buy new ones from vaux or DIY glueing them back on

Im really tempted to do it, but I've got a 96' reg - red corsa, Im worried that if I remove them they'll be a nasty difference in the paint, after removing the badges from the back the difference was only tiny and a good polishing restored it!
what you think?
