Default Buttons wearing out

Anyone else experiencing wear and tera on the stereo buttons they use the most... for example the radio preset/CD track skip buttons....

i've noticed that the black is fading and now there's more red light coming through, more evident at night... the same on the passenger side AUTO button for the climate control...i have two small dots and now red light pokes through them... should I have the dealer replace them? can they?

2002 A4 1.8T, manual, sport package

Default Wow...that's pretty bad. That's something you usually find on a early Big-3 vehicle...not a late

model Audi. They must have used a poor quality paint supplier. I do notice that the paint is a "soft touch" paint which is more expensive.
