Have you called/shown it to Infiniti yet?
I would be complaining to Infiniti if mine looked like that.
If they refuse to replace it just keep bugging them and keep calling Infiniti USA. Just don't lose your cool.
In the mean time I personally would purchase the door bezel from Riverside Infiniti's Parts for about $30.00 and hopefully get reimbursed by Infiniti at some point. Be sure you keep the original part(s) and take pictures of you swapping them out yourself.
I think the steering wheel part is also found on Riverside Infiniti's Parts under --> Steering wheel , Steering wheel and trim ,Steering wheel ,Lid )...$6.00ea.
Good luck. I hope you get Infiniti to take care of you as they should.

Mine is wheat color also and the Pepboys technicians gave greasy finger marks in that hole there and I wiped them off as much as I can but it's something about that material or coating that can't be cleaned 100%. I've Simonized done that could have something to do with it too..

It looks like some sort of gunk on the bezel that needs wiped off but won't. Is the black rubber coating only about 1 ml thick? I think I'll buy a new bezel after reading this.

most of the parts on the door interior are replaceable, and they can be ordered thru the dealer. i recently replaced the "brushed aluminum" trim pieces on the door handles of my black/black coupe...they looked like hell from the previous owner.

the dealer who i bought the car from replaced them for me before i took possession...and the salesperson showed me the parts list broken down with what is available. if i can get a copy of the sheet ill scan/post it for the sedan/coupe

Do guys with the 08 have the same issues?? I drive an 08 Journey and mine looks good as new.. I think I have one chip on the door handle part of the switch bezel.

I am guessing this problem is more for the 07 than the 08 models.

My friend had the same problem with his 06 Z, we just took it off sanded it and used plastidip on it and it was fine ever since.

08/black here. Have the same problem. The metal clip from the seat belt hits it when I take it off. Trying to be more careful now.
