Dash/Center Scratch

Hi All,
I recently was rear ended and my phone scratched the airbag light/sticker and above it. I’m not sure what exactly it’s called or what the best approach to repairing it is.
Any advice or direction would be appreciated.

It looks like replacement may be the only solution. The plastic itself is lifted/bubbled off the trim and clearly missing from the airbag indicator.

Or you could just leave it alone. In my experience, these jobs tend to look worse after "fixing" than if just left alone.

You were rear ended and this is the only damage? No insurance claim involved? If you were hit from behind wouldn't the phone fly backwards not towards the dash?
