Arrow scuff marks on plastic

I have an 08 with the tan interior. On the doorsill plastic there is black scuff marks that I can not seem to get rid of. I have tried Awesome, Simple green and soap and water and can not get these marks off. Does anyone know of something that will remove these marks? Thanks for any help.

You sure that it isn't where the finish wore off?

Try a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser, wet, along with some Barkeepers Friend ( a non-abrasive cleanser ). Or try some Goo Gone, automotive formula, along with the Magic Eraser. Both have worked for me and won't hurt the plastic.

The plastic is colored all the way thru.
You would have to wear away 1/8" thick
of plastic before it would 'wear thru'.
Try some bug and tar remover FTW.
