Hi guys,

First post here!

Does any know what is the purpose of this sticker and how to remove it without damaging the paint?

The sticker turned a bit yellow and I want to get it removed.

Thank you.

it's a common abrasion point for road debris in the air currents. the factory put it there to minimize paint defects from driving the car.

if it's yellowed/cracked, it's going to be difficult to remove. i would try with a whole bunch of plastic razor blades, goo gone/goof off, a good knee pad, a healthy day to do it, and a whole lot of patience.

It is to protect the paint when people get in and out of the back seat.
