The part that attaches to the keychain broke off, what is my best/cheapest option to get that fixed? Can you just get a new plastic part for the fob? The fob still is fully functional.

I have one of those silicone key holders for my key. It would probably do OK, but nothing overbearing.

Could you superglue the piece back together? Maybe do some glueing in combination with the silicone key cover and nobody would know but you.

I've had this key fob cover for a couple of years. Still going strong and looks great. But it's not leather, as they advertise. More like a thick diver's wet suit material.

Here's pic of mine after the color graphics have kinda worn off. I would buy another one. :cheers:

The shiny silver trim came off mine, but whatever. I tried to remove the rest of the shiny so that the whole key would just be black, (minus the visual queues on the buttons and the running horse logo) but I couldn't get the rest to peel off.

A sharp edge and a ton of patience.

Mine has been peeling and I've slowly been cutting the loose pieces. I kind of thought that strip might be an antenna for the NFC. I guess not! Have you noticed any lock/unlock/start issues since you pulled that piece off?
I haven't had any issues.

I could see that some small black plastic pieces were left when it broke so it isn't just not together something actually broke.
