That looks to be around the area the rubber door seals against the door-frame. Do you have any debris on the rubber seals?

It's not. It's hard plastic on the other side.

Nothing like that on my 2018 Anthony. Looks like maybe the doors aren't aligned properly?

I don't see this problem on my 2017, but it looks like it's a common problem that others have created custom PPF to prevent:

Oh, good job finding that.

My dealership denied my warranty claim, because my car was in an accident. Even though the accident happened at less than 5mph and they were the ones to repair the car.

I haven't had the time/made it a priority to pursue it further.

Just checked and I have those scuffs too. They only appear to be minor clear coat scratches though and I'm sure they'd buff out pretty easily. The ppf is a good idea but it will probably wear over time and look just as ugly so...probably not going to do anything about it. If it were eating away at the paint/exposing bare metal I'd be a lot more concerned and I'd seek dealer/bmw intervention.
