I was looking at the passenger doors and found 2 pcs of stickers at the bottom corner of the rear passenger doors. Just wondering what they were for and can they be removed?
Is there any significance use for the mentioned stickers?
Can anyone enlighten me? Thanks!

i left it as it is, since its the same colour as the car body. in fact, those clear plastics wrap on my front seat's drop-down sun shade is still there, the 3rd brake light also got 1 pc of clear sticker which i left it there too.

Thanks TS for bringing this up.
I also noticed it the second time I washed my car but decided it was nicely pasted on and left it alone. Have no idea what's for.

If yours is a new car, you'll notice there are lots of transparent stickers...be it interior or exterior of the car...these stickers are to prevent accidental scratches by the staff. I peel them all off when I first collect my new car.
They will turn yellowish after some time & leave a very ugly sigh.

arcfire you mean the 2 bottom stickers are transparent? My car is Titanium Silver and the stickers are exactly the same tone, not transparent as per described by duckling. duckling I have already peeled of those transparent stickers, but these 2 bottom stickers on both rear doors are colored the same tone as the car. Is it some sort of color code to match whether the paint of the car has oxidized or lost its tone over time?

most likely is that they forgotten to peel off the sticker when they sprayed paint.. me too peel off those protective sheets upon collection of my ride, then missed out the 2 rear clear tapes.... only did i realise weeks later when it turned greyish. sometimes I see those new cars for few months their seats and headrest still under wraps with those protective plastics.... can't bare the leather to be dirtied.... but won't feel irritated by the sound of it and the stickyness of it against the skin? Wait till sell car then remove and tell agent that it's 100% brand new... so fetch a good price.. hehe. My opinion, JUST RIP IT OFF and enjoy the feel and smell, it's a whole package of driving a new car. Although it's abit harzardous but still love the new car leather interior smell. keke.

Later only see bare metal under that sticker, I will kick myself for peeling off in the first place! Maybe they forgotten to peel off the sticker when they spray paint? ;D
