Funnily enough, the other half used to like the stickers on it, but when she was looking today she said that it looks quite tidy without them. I've always found that any stickers or decals on a car tend to become a bit of a dirt & polish trap - you end up with kind of a schmutz build up border around them unless you want to pick them out with your fingernail.
I've actually got a spare rear wheelarch surround trim that I picked up a couple of weeks ago (as the one on there has a knackered clip that leaves it sticking out) & I think that it may be a worthwhile exercise at some point in the near future to pop all of the mouldings off to give it a good scrub underneath as there is a bit of a discolouration appearing under some of them.
In definite need of some wider alloy wheels too as those wheel trims are just too scruffy!

To get polish etc from edges/gaps etc,an old toothbrush works well.(rinse thoroughly before putting back in bathroom,or use someone else's brush).

I've got some old toothbrushes that I use for all the nooks & crannies (& textured plastic on the interior), but I still prefer not to have nasty old stickers that give muck a place to build upon.
