Like yourself i had no joy so bought a sample off ebay, good colour match. Bit fiddly but its doable in 10 minutes and makes hell of a difference.

Search Ebay for Gloss Red Vinyl Wrap, i paid 99p all in

I could be mistaken but I think a couple of the folks that refresh the engine covers in North America use the “RS piece” from the rear Door Emblems for this

Just done mine with the wrap mentioned above.
Came out OK considering I don't have the steadiest of hands...

Top job :rocker:

Dont suppose anyone has a simple fix for a starting to wear sport button on steering wheel. A replacement comes as a complete unit!!!

Cheers guys

No such fix exists. You have to buy a whole new trim piece.
