Default Any suggestions how to fix these little interior problems?

Hi, new Audi owner here. I bought a 1997 Audi a4 quattro with a rebuilt engine, looks great just some scratches. the Interior has some, but these kindof annoy me the most, any suggestions to fix it? (its just on the plastic, not the leather)

Send a message to member Jiggleo about having him do a dry carbon fiber wrap on them. Go on his profile page, look up his posts, and you'll see recent ones with pics of some of his work. Quality stuff.

If carbon isn't your look, that plastic trim surrounding the switches comes off. You could hit it with some adhesion promoter and trim paint from AutoZone. Shouldn't be too tough to match the colors.

You'll need to remove the door panels first. Once they're off, you'll be able to get to the back side of the panels and then remove the individual parts. Talk to members Emilgevor and Hiwords - both of them have repainted theirs. And for the carbon look I mentioned earlier, take a look in the B5 forum - I just posted pics of mine.
