Uhhh plastic pieces on wheel fender???
Your gunna have to work with me on this one i tried to search for what these things are but i have no idea how to phrase it or what they are. They almost look like stickers on my wheel arches. They're symmetrical on both sides and they're painted just like my car except for the edges which are noticeably white. I have no idea what they are i've never seen them on any other car i'll send pictures in a second

Those are normal. I'm not sure exactly what the deal is, but I assume it's some kind of cost saving thing on building the car. The white around the edges would be wax that didn't get buffed out.

Q-tips or the pointy edge of your terry cloth help with taking the wax off. I usually take it off after the wax dries and before I buff it off. My car is white so I guess it also hides some of the bits that I'm not able to get out.

I HATE SPEEDBUMPS!
I have those too. I feel like taking it off, but it might damage the paint. Anyway, mine looks a little bit dirty, but it will protect that area of the car.

They are not body colored. They are clear and you are seeing the paint underneath. They are to protect the paint from road debris. I forget exactly but I think they are on the bumper just behind the rear tires too.
