"Bubble" in Sun Visor

Has anyone had this problem before? On my 2011 35is, I just noticed that there's a bubble in the leather of the sun visor (extended leather), right at the front of the area where there's the warning sticker. It's as if the glue underneath the leather came apart from the sun visor itself.

I'm going to stop by the dealership tonight, but wanted to see if anyone else has encountered this problem.

I had that on the passenger sun visor (extended leather). It was that way from the factory, I discovered it within a few days. It was a "hard" bubble as if the internal structure was warped. I took it to the dealer and had it replaced without any trouble, though they had to order it from Germany.

Have the dealer order a replacement ... very simple the dealer will be happy to do it since they will charge the factory for the work ... very minor work mind you.

good to hear, your description is spot on with what I'm seeing.

Any other problems with extended leather? That option looks great by the way.
