Does anyone have any experience fixing (or getting fixed) these two things?

1. The black plastic door molding on the outside driver door (B pillar)? Mine is peeling in a spot which results in a whistle noise when on the highway due to wind hitting it.

2. Roof molding- the two that run down the roof and windshield sides. They are chrome and covered in tint film. My tint film is peeling in spots.

I’m thinking these are DIY projects but don’t want to jack anything up...

So I had the outer B-pillar trim piece on my '18 RLX passenger front door start to lift. The piece is a plastic strip with double-sided tape on the back, and you remove the old one and replace it. I had the dealer do it under warranty. They also ordered the outside trim piece at the bottom of the window to replace also, since you needed to remove it to fully remove the B-pillar strip. Here's a couple of pics of what mine was doing...

looking towards the front, piece is lifting at the edge of the door.

You can easily see the lifting piece and the double-sided tape that let go from this open-door pic.

Excellent -- Thanks Andy!

That's almost exactly what's going on with my driver door trim.
