I could take it back, but considering the tape cost me $15 and will probably only take about 30 minutes to install myself, I'd rather just do it on my own. It will be less time/effort for me than to fight with this particular service department. I could also try my other local dealership. I've had pretty good luck with their service department in the past but again, it will probably be more time/effort than just fixing things myself.

Trust me, I was not happy about this particular design defect and noted it on my first survey under the "car was delivered without defects/issues" section, along with the incorrectly installed M Performance exhaust from the port, which is another frequently occurring issue that should have been stopped by now.

If it were something more serious or that I couldn't do myself with minimal effort, I would be making a bigger stink about it.
completely understand, unfortunate as it is. hope it works out for you and you can properly enjoy the car!
