Metal Console area replacement

Sup guys, quick question.

Just got myself an 04 TL AT with the grey interior and the carbon fiber look. On both sides between the console (specifically the drivers side in this case) is a silver metal trim. The previous owner banged it up pretty good with the metal to metal contact of the seatbelt. I have looked all over @ dash kits on the web and I cannot seem to find this specific part, only the replacement items for around the gear shifter.

I don't know, maybe I am calling it the wrong piece when I do searches, but it should be a pretty standard replacement part... right?

Can anyone help me find this piece.

I replaced both of mine for about $120. The former owner attempted to stab the trim piece 800 times before buckling her seat belt, along with embedding glitter into the steering wheel.

It's an actual metal overlay over the molded plastic, I popped both sides out and replaced them - get it from the dealer; no dash kits.

Yes, it appears your previous owner also had my car or Jason Vorhees used to own it. So the dealer has them laying around eh?

i'm guessing this is a common problem as mine is ugly as hell. i just got my car 3 weeks ago and it was already messed up. is this piece easily removed?
