    Dented Trim on Airbag Cover

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    On the way home, a Corolla decided to change lanes into me. I firmly pressed my horn to avoid getting hit. I guess I hit a soft spot and slightly dented the silver trim. There's a small crease and I would like to fix it myself if possible. Does anyone know the part number and DIY instructions to get this done? I did find something on e*** that looks similar but I want to confirm fitment.

    I'm in the same boat. The FL snowbirds give me constant reason to punch the horn, so I have a crease on both sides of the Audi rings.

    Hopefully somebody chimes in with an inexpensive solution. It's such an eye sore and I only have 3k miles on the car.

    Sadly the cover is an integrated part of the actual airbag. The metal trim is actually too soft and can deform/scratch pretty easily. Audi doesn't offer the cover itself, but instead the whole airbag has to be replaced.
