So after a recommendation and some help form a member here, I was guided towards a local garage who took off the trims, matched them with their paint cards, painted them, baked them, even sprayed up a match card for future use with my name on, and then charged me £70 all inc.

Got the trims back today and very happy, even put on some flippers that were not peeling on the back. JUST my button now seems a little worn! They even removed the BMW part number sticker and put back after spraying!

Seems a shame to put it on the car now,what you need are some BMW driving gloves to protect it.
