benz fixed mine under warranty...

dunno if yours is still in effect, but that's probably the best way to fix it.

X3 and 2012 C coming soon
I am getting ready to paint mine satin black along with the trim around the shift boot. I hate chrome in the interior. The sun rays bounce off of it and it annoys the he77 out of me.

They replaced mine too. I am very easy on my interior and mine started to peel. As long as you are under 50K miles- you should be fine.

Thanks for the FYI !!! Next time I'm in for a service I'll ask my SA for this favor. It does chip quite easily since I'm also very careful but I must've slammed my Starbucks coffee mug hard enough one morning !!!

VERY unlikely. Might have helped if you had revealed what her car is.

This is warrantied and has happened to a lot of people. Bring it in and they will fix it free of charge within 1 day.

Anyone have peeling on the black trim that holds the chrome cup holders?

My chrome trim on the cupholders is not perfect but even more noticeable is that the black plastic trim piece that contains the cupholder is peeling in several places... Anyone else have this? It is the black plastic that contains the Command knob and the cupholders. I've tried to find the part number and just replace it myself but cannot locate this part anywhere!!! Anyone else ever have this replaced? Know the part number?

Guess I'll check with the dealership to see if they will replace it under warranty.
