    They call this molding door belt molding. My '06 got cruddy like this and the only fix was just replace it. It's really easy to replace; have to take your door panels off and put a little painters tape on the outside of the door to protect the paint. They are held on with built in clips. You used a plastic trim removal tool to remove. I tried everything to clean it with no luck. Here's a link on ebay. You could research and find the part # for only the drivers side; they are about 25 - 30 bucks a piece.

    I think you are confusing "growing stuff" with "deposits" lol. One grows on its own over time, the other is slow buildup over time from an outside source (like skin oils and particulate). An educated guess would say buildup. Then a little help with sun and weather cycling gets you that uglyness.

    Looks like chew spit. And then pollen lands on the chew spit before it dries up. Quit spitting and swollow you won't have that problem.
