Inside window sill wear repair?

The inside black window sill right above the armrest on the door on my m3 is worn down and kind of feels like a tacky rubber material now.
I'm guessing the previous owner must have always rested his arm/elbow on it so that areas is all worn out and not smooth like the rest of the dash.

Is there a way to repair it without replacing the entire door panel?
Perhaps there's a special interior dash paint?

Not my pic but basically where the light is shining in the upper left corner is where it's all worn down.

I'd replace the door card entirely; it's not cheap, but it won't look like shit as if it were painted or that plasti-crap were applied.

A pic would help of your actual car, though. I'm sure a proper cleaning and conditioning of the area would improve the look, but it's hard to tell without any actual pictures.
