I have a '06 A6 and the main control **** started to bubble up, but its not paint it's like a vinyl and underneath it is black paint so I just removed the vinyl that was bubbling up. I removed it with my finger nail and now it looks just like it did before it started to peel. shrugs.

if u peel it it will look just like the color that is peeking in
i am guessing what happened is audi may have felt that some pieces finished color came out to dark of a grey and they attempted to put a thin layer of lighter color paint on them to better unify with other colors in car and on some pieces maybe a bit for texture
the trick is to peel it and not cause scratching on the under layer maybe use some goo gone and a rotary tool w polishing bit
heres how it looks from the underside
notice the 3 screw/bolts and notice the center star cut ring plate holding the gold colored pin
if u force it up u r trying to get the ring plate to reverse the flap angles and release the pin
then u will have the ring plate accept the new button's pin
