    My recently acquired ‘98 has melted plastic just to the outside of the turn signal indicators. I’ve seen photos from other 5G that show the same problem. I’ve also seen a “mod” or hack that had a small sticker or CF panel attached to that area either to protect or cover up previous damage.

    Is the melt from a magnifying glass effect from the windscreen while being parked in the sun?
