Default Cleaning plastic door and trim panels

Has anyone had any success in removing marks from the plastic door and lower trim panels, especially the light-stone colored plastic the "S" model was cursed with?

I have not tried it on the Fiesta yet, but I have always had great results with Meguiars Quick Interior Detailer Cleaner. Another option is Griots Interior Cleaner, but it it comes with the Griots price tag.

There are many products that I use as a part time detailer that will help. On my fiesta, which is the S model, I use

Green All Purpose Cleaner & Degreaser

Super easy to use and smells good too!

If there are actual scratches on the black trim/dash, I would recommend using kiwi black shoe polish and a Q tip to fill in the scratch. It hides it pretty well!

Just don't rub it in too much or it will be much shinier than the rest of the trim. Made that mistake with my other car so I've avoided trying the shoe polish on my Fiesta.

A friend of mine was able to use a Mr. Clean magic eraser to get dirt and stains from dirt off but if you have scratches in the plastic itself then I don't know.
