Chipped trim pieces

The silver trim on the door trim for the windows/locks is chipping away so dam cheap, it wasnt coated good enough from the factory

can someone get me a part # so i can order new ones.

curious...is there black ones (maybe that the 2.2/2.4's use) i would rather have the darker colors than the silver trim.

I am having the same problem and was wondering if these parts are warrantied from this kind of wear. And also the Fabric on the arm rest is also wearing from where i rest my arm. Are the SS/SC with the color matched interior made of the same fabric just a different color or is it something different? And if it is covered under warranty do you think GM could replace it with the color matched material instead.

The trim pieces on the door handles are covered under warranty, atleast mine were. I also had paint chipping of the #1 button of my radio and my dealership replaced the entire radio under warranty.

Everyone has problems with the paint chipping on the door trim pieces...if you would do a search, you would find that out...I've had mine replaced under factory, but it will just happen again...most people just end up painting them to match the car'c color.
