The only good rubstrip is a dead rubstrip:

Agreed. While the 94 was in for paint, had them painted just in case I ever sell the car and the next owner wants them. T

Burgundy would look stupid in the red car but looks good in the gray car.
I've never had the opportunity to compare but I would think burgundy would look better than brown in a white car and I'm not a fan of black or blue. What else is common in white cars?

Seeing as the doors are aluminum, and I tend to drive the car, I think I'll leave 'em on. But If anyone wants to part with theirs, I'll take them - as the ones on my car are bubbling from rust jack on the inside.

I seriously dislike the rub strips on my red car and plan to remove them some day. Just wondering, in looking at the back of the strip in post 63 it occurred to me that you may be able to spray something like WD40 along the top of the strip and over time (like this winter ) dissolve the glue to remove these without damaging the paint. Anyone try this?

That is without a doubt a beautiful car and color.
I am just saying that, from that angle with that lighting and that color, I think it might look better with rub strips.

Took mine off, filled the holes. Looks much cleaner without them. For the record acetone works great for removing the adhesive residue, and it does not damage paint. In fact everything i've painted on my 928 i've prepped/wiped with acetone just before paint.
