If it doesn't fit,

If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway

Re: Silver X10XE Slow project
To make it last longer, wait till your back to black fades away again and try this,
get a heat gun.
set it on a low temp.
hold it between 30cm away from the trim and at a 45 degree angle.
slowly bring the trim up to temp.
the oil in the plastic will come to the surface making it blacker.
Keep the heat gun moving or your trim might bend out of shape. (if that happens quickly hold it back into position and let it cool down )
