Scratches on my console

For the dash, I'd suggest taking some pictures and posting. Perhaps a good cleaning and treatment with 303 would "hide" them, but I have my doubts. You didnt mention what your dash is made of...hard plastic, soft plastic, pleather..etc?!?
As for the screen, I hope for it to completely break and a warranty replacement, if ya know what I mean. That scratch aint coming out.

Mr Zipps: Acura might cover something like the Navi Screen. However, for the trim, I think you are SOL with them.
My advice, Mother's polish is terrible. I tried it tonite on some lightly swirled plastic tails from my Integra. Like real light, barely noticeable unless under a Halogen light. So, I QD'd the tails and worked in some Mother's Plastic polish and it did nothing. I tried a different pad and used more force, nothing. I then used Gliptones Swirl Free Polish (fine cut) with a terry towel folded in 8ths and it took most of the light swirls out of the plastic.
If I'm not mistaken, the trim is shiny right? I would try some light cut polish first, then if nothing, try some DACP. Apply these both with a terry towel folded in 8ths (to disperse equal pressure). If you don't feel comfortable, I'd just order a new piece from Acura or try eBay.
Good Luck.

I have a 3.2TL and the black plstic has scratches in it to...never seen a plastic scratch so easily and how this one does scratch.
I am going to try some stuff on it come spring.
