Creaking in shifting bezel?

Well, at around 800 miles in my 07 type S, and I have the horribly loud and annoying creaking in the center shifting bezel. Everytime I brake or accelerat, it creaks, kinda like walking on old hardwood floor. It is loud, any one else had this problem?

I have the same problem and ironically it got worse after I took my car in to the dealer to have them fix this very issue. Sometimes, I noticed that part of the bezel is popping out a little bit and I have to push it back in, which quiets the noise for a little bit....I'm getting kinda fed up with Acura and their quality issues.

My dealer added some foam pieces under the bezel piece. It eliminated the rattle.

its the plastic of the trim rubbing against the CF/wood trim.

I think I'm starting to get this now - very mild, though - so far (just 2.5k miles on the car). Does the trim simply pop-out?
