I need practice setting up polls so I thought up this question.

A very nice new white Camry pulled up next to me today and it had grey door edge guards. Couldn't say whether it looked good or tacky. I notice in the sigs here that very few people have them. Do you?

edge guards are tacky, and sometimes do more damage than good. they move around and scratch the paint.
just be careful when you open your door.
