benkei Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 It look like a bump-guard used to be here, but was taken off. There isn't one on the passenger side, just this one. Does it come off, or is it stuck on for good?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iky Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 It might come off easy by gently heating with a hair dryer to soften the glue. Use a plastic/rubber card to scrape it off carefully. In my opinion its placed to high anyway. The bottom swage line is what sticks out the most and hits on stuff first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaan W Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 Its stuck for good mate. Thats a new car job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supra joe Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 Looks like some sort of protection, or where some protector has been stuck on to stop damage to the edge of the door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L18msy Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 Is it maybe a touch up sticker? I think toyota used to sell a small sheet with colour coded stickers to cover chips and scratches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benkei Posted August 7, 2012 Author Share Posted August 7, 2012 I hope it comes off, it's an eye-sore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wyldfyre Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 It actually looks like some leftover residue from those silly stick-on reflectors. I'd imagine some heat and solvents might clean it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraStar 3000 Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 its a poisonous transparent screaming leech. Dont make it angry. To remove it, simply play some Beethoven (I find Symphony No. 9: Ode To Joy,.. works extremely well) and very, very slowly warm him up with a hair dryer or hot water. After he starts to purr, peal him off and drop him into a pint of beer. He should melt within 48hours. Good luck. OH, and wear eye protection. IF any of that poison gets in your eyes you could turn homosexual! Be carful mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the longest length of the door so in theory the part which might catch the most. Is it a rubber glue there or just marks on the door where the protector used to be?

BazzaAlpine Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 I'd be more worried that the paint under it is a different colour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TubbyTwo Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 I have these on mine. Assumed it a door protector, although mine look like they have been painted over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen Supras with big black plastic blatant door protectors, so I'm presuming this is where they've been removed and the adhesive remains?
