Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I solved the problem by removing the plastic trim and having it painted by a local body shop.
Hi folks,
I bought a 996 GT3 recently, but I don't think this is GT3 specific. The backs of the seats are plastic and coated with a rubbery material that looks like it's been rubbed off in some areas. I've also rubbed some of this stuff off of the plastic door sill part (where the trunk and hood releases are) when I run the battery tender wire at the bottom of the door through the notch in the weather stripping. Has anyone restored or minimized these marrings on the plastic before? It's not worth the cost of new seats, but it does bug me every time I see them.
Thanks!
Soft touch plastic... not the best in long term durable coatings Porsche could have used. LOL
I solved the problem by removing the plastic trim and having it painted by a local body shop. Much more durable and you can choose any color you want. For my Graphite Grey interior, I went with one of the newer Porsche colors Meteor Grey Metallic... some people just paint it their cars exterior color which also looks nice.

Not a cheap endeavor,however worth it IMO,i was told, a little labor intensive the removal of the factory finish in prepping for the new paint,just make sure whoever does the job has a good reputation!.....good luck
