Finally took it to the dealer, they said it's not covered under warranty since it's not a manufacturer's defect.

Wanted $194 for part 51-41-7-346-919 and labor cost starting at $600 just to take the door panel off. Also said if there was even the slightest bit of extra work to remove the broken pieces, they would charge more. Even said if the trim couldn't be replaced, would be ~$2,500 to replace the door panel.

I bought a CPO to avoid having to do my own repairs. I mean why put plastic trim on doors? You see the picture, minimum $800 to fix from the same place I bought the car less than 5 months ago...

I have an e90 with ~168k miles, so I'm used to taking off door panels to replace window regulators. I can order the part for less some where else and change it out myself.
