everybody's car has them, and I'm pretty sure that nobody's found a cure yet.

...i have light circles around my window crank. and a huge scratch on the passenger side where some girl with a ring was reaching up to the front and gouged the crap out of the door panel. other than that, just random fingernail scratches from the woman, but it's rediculous; we shouldn't have to deal with that.

I have an '01 Hyundai that was a one owner when I got it last October. It didn't have very many scratches when I got it, since it was babied. I have noticed that since I've owned it, the door panels have gotten more scratches. I swear, all I have to do is look at the panels the wrong way and they get scratches. I've tried to buff them out. It's very dismaying to know that the door panels of the NEW HYUNDAIS are still doing this, especially since we're looking into getting an '08 soon! This sucks. I know they're cheap cars, but really.....

I'm trying to find a work around for the scuffs around the window crank. I had my door panel
removed and when they put the window crank back on they scuffed it pretty bad with the tool.
I have been looking for a 3 1/4" disc of some kind to put behind the window crank to cover
the scuffs. Once I find one I can remove the crank and put it back with the disc behind it.
It could also be a nice looking detail if I find a cool disc.

Not so much with the lighter plastics on those that have the 2-tone interior scheme. :grin: The 4-door interior seems to hold up a little better, I have no complaints with mine.
