do the american market M3's door trims, like the handle ( not the opener bit, but the handle) and part of the arm rest pit? ie get what looks like air bubbles under the plastic? either as circular bubbles or a uneven line of air? looks like cracking?

My 2003.5 has been reliable, but then I only have 12k miles on the car. Most of the 2003 model year cars are rolling off of the 4/50k bumper to bumper warranty and maintenance plans, though.
