If you are getting white marks underneath them... I know a little trick which MAY help..

On the corsa c forum, people were getting white lines underneath where they had taken the side rub strips off, on some older cars that is sort of 2000-2003.

If you are getting white marks where your badges were t-cut etc wont work.

The white is caused by water getting into the laquer.

Nick your mums / sisters / gf's hairdyer or get a heatgun, and slowly heat up the paint where the white marks are.

DO NOT DO IT TOO CLOSE OR ON TOO HOT A SETTING AS THE PAINT WILL BUBBLE! But I did this on my corsa and it worked a treat.
