Re spray it yourself properly....the new one will only peel again same as before.
I re sprayed mine (same as trim) looks way better than black and a lot better job.It was done years ago and is still mint ;)

Yeah I bought a replacement from the dealer. A relative bargain at only £30+!

And compared to my old one, the new one seems to made of solid black plastic and not black painted white plastic, so shouldn't suffer the same problem in the future!

Agree with the above, just buy a new trim piece.
