Air Bag Cover?

Ok so im guessing this is the airbag cover. (picture below)

on my car, the covering for it has been ripped off, due to annoyance and heat damage- and now it looks almost as bad as it did before.

What i want to know is - is there a fairly easy way to make it look clean again, or do any of you want to sell yours?

also, my retarded friend held a lighter to the bezel right below that and it has a bad burn mark and melted a bit

suggestions? (price estimates are good too)

the covering should be fairly easy to replace, it's just glued on vinyl on a plastic cover that's hooked onto the metal housing of the inflator and cushion. Lol I work at Takata, #1 manufacturer of airbags/vehicle safety systems around the world, and in the GM division, but the Alero wasn't made by Takata so I can't vouch for its safety or design.

All you do is take fishing like like here said and use a sawing motion to get them off, then some goo-gone to take the rest of the adhesive off. Double sided tape works the best when you but them in you interior.

i kick an ex girl out of my jeep cause she lit a cig and the top and doors were off made her stand on the side of the road and smoke then get back in. If you are smoking in one of my car your ass better be on fire

wd-40 works well for the glue removal too

Because if you ever want them off i dotn know how well super glue will let go of the soft part of the dash board. and if you place it wrong super glue wont let you re-possition it.
