Side windows etched by trim?

UncleWede · 07-09-2007, 01:56 PM

I searched but couldn't find this anywhere else.

My E90 is over two years old. On our recent trip I rolled down the windows and noticed this dark line at just where a fully rolled up window meets the top trim/weatherstripping. I tried to scratch it off with a fingernail, but no luck. My fingernail would catch on it, but not remove it. Glad I don't have any tint on those, it would be ruined.

my tints are all scratched up from the window trim... i need to get my tints re-done

It seems to be only on the inside of the window, and took quite a bit of scratching to remove. Am I neglecting the trim, it needs some sort of conditioner?

exact reason why i don't want to get tints even though i do want them, if this happened to me I'd pissed off.
