Polo Vivo - Headlight switch panel

[darrylavid]

Hi all,

I suspect that the Vivo is not for sale in the UK but please read on just in case....

Long story short, some moron (i.e. me) tried to clean some old adhesive off this plastic panel using (acetone free) nail polish remover. It has obviously ruined the plastic on this panel as you can see in the attached image - It looks worse in real life!

My question is whether this panel (not the light switch) is a replaceable / removable part and if not - any suggestions on how to make this look less terrible?

e.g. sanding it down, some kind of lacquer.... 

I am pretty clueless with this kind of thing.

Thanks in advance,

DL

Oh dear, nail polish remover is quite viscous stuff on plastic as you have found out

I would be tempted to acquire a small amount of carbon fibre style (or just plain black or grey) vinyl from ebay and cut to shape to fit the panel

Thanks... I can't imagine how I would be able to trace/cut it perfectly enough though!
