BG Hatch door black strips?

Hey guys,

Tried to search but didn't exactly know what to look for...

Basically, I'm talking about the black strips that run on the outside of the boot hatch up to the top of the rear doors. I want to know if anyone else's black paint has rubbed off to show chrome underneath. Mine is really patchy and I want to paint it over with the black but as I'm aware paint won't stick to black real well?

Anyone else have the problem and any suggestions??

Matt
