The right side dash panel on my '06 Roadster that houses the glovebox has developed a slightly rubbery/tacky feel to it. I noticed it when I removed the panel to do some stereo work and left fingerprints IN the actual surface that I now can't remove.

The color is medium slate gray, and I believe it is molded in that color (vs. painted) as it is consistent throughout the front, back and edges.

The car is currently winterized. Ever since I originally purchased it new, it has never been stored in direct sunlight for long periods during driving season. So, I can't believe it's UV degradation.

Has anyone else come across this? If so, is there a fix? Thanks for any thoughts.
