The faded line is the same as what I got when I removed my rub strips, cant do out about it without getting it resprayed thats for sure. | |

Mate go to vauxhall and buy some new rub strips, they wont cost much, then get your bodyshop to spray them up, it looks better like that than having no rub strips IMO. | |

just taken it to the bodyshop, they said it was under the laquer and the only way to get it off is to respray!!! :( | |

My mates pre97 rubstrips did the same. He tried everything to get the faded bit to go away but had no luck. | |

Looks like the adhesive, just get some cellulose thinners and rub the pooy stuff off, takes abit of elbow grease, but comes off. then polish it up and it'll be fine | |

Mine had a strip down the middle when I took the rub strip off, might mean your car has had a respray sometime? | |
