Default Ultra White Protective Film Factory

Picking up my UW/RR 350 Monday, and noticed it has the door panels factory protective film, should I leave them on or take them off? Just have to keep it clean if I keep it on, I'm a clean freak. Once they turn yellow maybe I'll take them off for sure.

I would pull them and have a comany put on new protectant. For some reason the PPF that comes stock is a dirt magnet. Just my opinion. Having mine removed next week and replaced with the XPEL that i had done on the front of my car

How would I pull them off without ruining the paint or scratching the paint

I would leave them. They can always be taken off later. Mine are 6 months old and look just as good as they day I got the car.
