What have you tried Emily?
A form of polish might help you and if you have a black that might work even better Smile

I scratched my speedo the other day and nearly actually cried to David said try some Plastic X by meguires. Well I didn't think it would work but it got it out! I couldn't believe it, so I would give it a try on this?

Try a normal polish first as you may be surprised Smile

I had a couple of scuffs on the mirrors and a normal polish did the trick Very Happy

Hi Emily, just asked David and he said he got it from Halfords in store, they currently have 3 for two on at the moment too! He reckons it probably would as it got a similar one out of the countryman's exterior A pillar plastic.

Just try normal polish first to save buying anything else you'll be surprised as it may come off easy.......

As Dave and I have both said use polish! Don't waste your money on Hellfrauds trim products Very Happy
