Hey guys on my 06 IS250 the center trim where its chrome is peeling off. It surrounds the where the shifter slide around. Is there a recall or better fix than paying another $400 for it?
I hope everyone knows what im talking about....

Unless you bought an extended warranty, it's history!

lol, wow! I just sold one to a guy on this forum. I didn't know they were $400 bux... I let it go for $20!
If I were you, I would just go up to the dealer and see what they say.

Have the same exact issue. I'm thinking about cf wrapping the console and possibly peeling off the rest of the chrome and wrapping that as well
