Scratched interior trim
I put a verrry light scratch in the "carbon look" metal trim at the top of my drivers door. I stuck my hand out to push the door back open and hit it with the watch that I never wear.
Any suggestions on what I can use to buff this out without making it worse? It's barely noticeable but I know it's there. Thx!

Is it a textured surface, or smooth? If it's textured, you probably can't do anything. If it's smooth, for example has like a clear coat on it, then you might be able to remove it with paint correction methods (a little polishing compound for example).

Cross grain, not likely.

Mask off the entire trim piece and spray it with a light coat of satin or matte black trim paint.

the interior trim stinks in the M5, mine is scratched as well. I ordered an overlay that installed in the dash, and it looks great. Deciding on doing the doors in alcantara or CF. Waiting for a sample from the manufacturer.
