Interior trim ppf/protection

I've searched high and low and can't seem to find some sort of protection on the interior trim parts (pictured below)

I have the fineline anthracite trim which is one of the main reason I bought my car, but starting to appear with fine lines/scratches. I've tried applying ppf myself with a kit ordered off eBay but it's way too thick to mould against the curve on the centre console trim.

Any suggestions or ideas guys on protecting long term? I know there is another recent thread on how to remove the scratches, but I'm looking to protect! Thanks

Not helpful I realize, but that looks grim and would annoy me too.
Hope you find a solution.

Ive called numerous wrapping companies to see if they have a clear wrap that could be applied- can’t help.
There’s a new company called Ngenco who have realeased a Range Rover interior film kit (for the touch screen and clear glass centre console) - can’t help.

Why don't you see if it can be ceramic coated. That stops fine scratches.

Heat it up with a heat gun/hairdryer then wrap it.

I'd be careful about sticking anything to interior parts. The inside of a car gets hot so you'll need to be confident the wrap doesn't weld itself to the trim making it difficult to remove.

Interior trim ppf/protection

Have a look at Gtechniq, I've used a few different products on every car I've had over the the last 10 Years. Each car has had the screen coating (G1) means no ice on the windows, Alloy Wheel coating (C5) jet wash brake dust with no scrubbing/brushing required.
