The bump strips stop dings in the door if you park in car parks...But would look better off...Better having the strips than dents in the doors from
some old granny in asda car park though.

Bart be careful i've just taken mine off my black Corsa B and there's a white stripe behind, apparently where the glue has reacted with the paint. Heard the only way to resolve it is to have the door resprayed!! I'll send u a pic of mine if u want.

I thought about leaving mine on because i work in a supermarket and park in the car park near enoug every day, i noticed i had been hit a couple of times but cuz the car is lowered the doors of other cars hit about 6 inches above the rub strip so it aint worth it being there anyway!!!!

So im gonna remove mine!!!!!
