Crazing between windshield/sunroof

Sorry this is kind of a ****ty picture but does anyone know what this is/what causes this aberration here on the black area between the windshield and the sunroof? Unfortunately had to park my car outside during my workday for about 15 months so I'm thinking it could be related?

Also does anyone have the part number or an online source for where to replace the silver star on the center of the wheel? One of mine seems to have popped off at some point..

Kinda hard to tell what I'm looking at. I see reflections, but if you have abrasions on that part then it's likely from environmental factors. Most likely UV damage. That part is plastic and it seems to not like the sun too much. There's a recent thread in the C43 forum where the paint started to come off on that part from parking the car in the sun. Unfortunately, UV light can do a lot of damage to the car paint if exposed for a prolonged time.

Sorry, don't have the part # for the hub caps.

Thanks for the response, I'll try and add a better pic when I get the car outside, thankfully only garage parked these days but that year and a bit probably wasn't great for it. Will check out that other post, hopefully it's a replaceable part because even though it's not that noticeable I hate knowing it's there.

Not sure if this is the part # inside the hub cap? But when MB did a seasonal tire swap they broke one of the small plastic clips (see photo). In addition to just replacing the hub cap (see photo) they also needed to replace the round black plastic holder. It looks like the small round dish. I cannot find the invoice to see what the exact part # is for that.

Yes this is exactly what I was looking for, thanks! Turns out it's tough to find just that bit though, however I was able to find a part number: 00040009009283 which includes the screw on cap + this piece that you added the photo of.
