Moving wall artifacts

Does anyone know how to hide these fine lines that appear when i have a moving wall?

In the image, you can clearly see the dark plastic line that runs the side of my wall.

I have the same problem on the rotating panels with indicator lines here. I might have a solution, but I havn't tried it yet.

This is my idea:
1) Cover each moving panel with a very thin func_brush.
2) Apply the nodraw material on the covers.
3) Parent the covers with the panel they are covering.

@sbrown: I was actually negating his statement. I could see the picture just fine already.
