Hi all,

 

Looking for some advice, about to buy a vrs estate but the rear centre console looks like it's been scuffed a fair bit with kids jumping about.

 

Any ideas how this can be repaired? I'm assuming it will need painted but is it worth replacing the part, won't to avoid that if possible. 

 

Cheers

This is the right time to install double USB socket in the rear

A repair on a textured surface like that is going to look terrible. 

Might be worth cleaning it properly and then giving it a gentle run over with a heat gun.  It won't remove the scratches but will bring the dark colour back to them and hence reduce their visibility.  This worked on some external plastics on my previous Honda Civic so should work in this situation too.  You just need to be careful, so you don't do more damage than good.

Needs cleaning first. Then maybe a protectant will make them a lot less noticeable, autoglymm rubber and plastic protectant is what I use, others may also be as good or better,  to the extent you may not need to replace it.

That looks awesome to me, saves all the fannying about trying to repair. Is it easy enough to install?

Where does the wire goes to..?

Also needs coding or not??

I haven't done it myself, but it's on my list. There are higher priority retrofits
