Default Interior door trim gap by window

There is a decent size gap in the middle by my front passenger window trim. Pretty sure it's sun damage. My driver side window is normal while the back passenger ones seem to be developing gaps too even though they have window tint. Tried looking for a part number for the black piece but couldn't find one. Is there any way to fix this without having to replace the whole interior door panel?



It's also raised up when you look at it from the outside.









You can see how the black trim piece is not straight in the middle

Here is the part number for the black piece at on the inside of the window at the bottom: 68171-53040
Before you replace anything I would suggest taking off the door panel and see what the issue is at the middle...you might be able to realign it without part replacement...or you may find the issue is the door panel itself and not the black piece.

Do you have the part number for the ABS black plastic? The one that is part of the interior door handle. That plastic is raised up. Sorry if my initial post wasn't very clear. I'll be sure to take the door panel off and see what is going on when I have some time.

That part you're referring to is the door panel...it's not a seperate piece that can be replaced...it's actually part of the whole piece that is the door panel.
Without specifics about the car, this is likely the part number:67610-53751-42, but once again, you would need to confirm color and options to find the correct part number. The panel is only $600.

Thanks for your help!!! I had a bad feeling that I would probably have to replace the door panel unless I can somehow reshape that piece.
