I want to get some vinyl stripes but i'm still getting prices. I will also put up more pictures because i need major arm rest help.
Thanks everyone!

It keeps falling and not staying up. Also is missing the plastic cover(you can see in the picture). Is there any small part i can buy to fix it? I went to the dealership to see how much a new arm rest would be and they were saying... $350
Any suggestions?

The only parts I see for the armrest are the latch, the top with the latch, the side cover and the complete armrest.

I'd pull it out and see if there is any way to take it apart and see if it can be fixed. Otherwise your best bet is to find a good used one or aftermarket armrest on ebay.

You can find a replacement shell for the key here:

My ring comes off of my key quite often I found you can pry the to halves of the remote apart enough to slip it back into place, kinda tricky to do ( almost need 3 hands to do it) but with paitence you can get it back into place. i actually use my NB key fob to pry it open enough to get it back in, I've become quite proficent in doing it.

You should be able to do so using 3m double sided tape however I would highly suggest you do not adhere it to the airbag shown in the photo, it is clearly defined by the rectangular shape.
