It is a known issue.

you can either coat is in plastic-dip, scratch it with wet sandpaper to bive a matte look of just cover it with something.

Thanks for all the advice.

VW want to charge $810 + fitting for the matt finish surround from the standard Passat!

$5 for wet and dry sandpaper or $5 for a can of plastic-dip for the same/similar result.

Hi all has any one elso had an body kit come loos on your car.
I have a black R36 wagon an on extremly hot days teh rear spoiler lifts off the roof.

I have it booked in to be replaced but wanted to know if any other body kits were causing any greif.

I have had previous experiences with other model VW ( Bora and Toureg) and have had similar experirnces.
