   I have a sticker on the side of my door thats peeling off or bubling. It's down the side of the door. Should i pull this off? Or can i get a new sticker or something to cover it?

   Take em off mate. Mine were doing the same so I removed them. Look good on black cars IMO.

    I took mine off, use some white spirit to get the glue stuff off, then clean then and gave then a polish, look the sex

    Standard is a matt black vinyl. If its solid plastic it might be a replacement?

    shudnt be plastic, best way to get it off is using a hairdryer to melt the glue. thats what i did, looks much better.

    Yeah i took mine off looks much better in my opinion, plus putting some more strips on would they not just do the same again?

    It has a kind of shiney sticker and underneath is a blastic but the same size of the strip, it's strange.

    Well whatever you do just be careful not to take off any paint!
    
    Take whatever is "tacky" off, you cant go much further than the paint, and it will look great on your car (especially because its black)

    Mine took about 20 mins each side, i was using a mixture of WD40 and petrol to get the sticky residue that was left underneath. I think the saxos actually look better with the strip removed.
    
    Heres my posi blue with them removed:
