Facelift presumably? They do seem prone to this, I do not know of a solution :(

Get a smart repairer to do it, they only charge £20 for this sort of thing.... I run a car hire company, and use them all the time, they are good..

I have exactly the same problem.  :( :(

I was wondering if they were inserts that could be replaced? Otherwise, I guess the only way is new / secondhand door cards. I've noticed that the rubbery stuff is even affected by it getting wet, it seems to go grey until it drys out.

I've noticed when people have replaced the door check straps (with the doorcard off) a couple of folks have put new handles/plastics on. Anybody care to clarify parts/prices? Wouldn't bother painting, that will look gash  :P

Oh, and make sure all your family have cut their nails before entering your car or operating your electric windows!  ;D
