Hey everyone. I noticed the trim around my 8" screen melted, or somehow the finish peeled away in a spot. Maybe it was there and I never noticed. Can't really say, I almost never touch the screen and have only had it 1.5 months, but now that I saw the blemish, I can't unsee it. I dapped in some permanent marker and it helped some, but there's definitely a slight dip in the plastic.

Now, I know this isn't the end of the world, and I may even be able to have it replaced through warranty, but I don't want the dealer to tear my dash apart.

But I'm using this little goober as a reason to poll everyone for cover up ideas. The 8" screen panel/bezel/surrounding isn't the most pleasant thing to look at, and I've hunted for days to see what all exists in the aftermarket world or vinyl accents that might enhance the interior and serve to cover this up. Surprisingly, I've come up kind of short. There are those stick on accent pieces, which don't do much for presentation, but I may pick one up and spray it matte silver to match my Bronco.

So, anyone have any thoughts, or ideas? Maybe a silver pinstripe around the edge to add some flare to the enter of the panel?

Sure, I'll add one later. But it's the dark spot in the middle of the picture. Not large.

Naw, as I mentioned, it's not the end of the world. Just something I noticed and using it as an opportunity for ideas on how to spruce up the interior. Neat little vinyl ideas, trim enhancements, accents, stickers. I'm sure we have some creative minds on here.

I appreciate the tip! I have seen those and thought about painting it a matte silver to match the body paint/door panel paint insert (I can't believe there's no silver option out there. The chrome ones just look bad IMO) Give the dash a little pizazz and some accents.

Any other ideas out there? Surprised someone hasn't made any clever vinyl overlays for this yet.

I added a "retro" touch. :)

Kidding aside I have seen some bezel trim pieces offered for the surround area.
