Please Help with coupe Coupe Trunk trim problem
Hey all
the black part around the sight-window and on top of the hatch above the third brake light is normally a glossy type black, for some reason this gloss is starting to come off and is like scuffed off. I will try to take a picture but it might be hard to see.
It seems like the clear coat is starting to come off If i had to describe it.
Has anyone else had this problem, if so were you able to fix it or is there something I can do?
If it keeps going this way it will look really bad and ugly.

I took it to the body shop and they fixed it up for me, cheap.
Like "LinDenKid" said its just the plastic part.

Mine is doing this in a few small areas too. I have always assumed that it required removing and replacing that polycarbonate little window piece, which I believe is epoxy-ish-ed to the hatch. I've just assumed it would be too expensive to worry with (yet).
