Removing F25 X3 Nearside Headlight Unit

Well, took my X3 into the supplying dealer today. They are replacing the headlight unit together with all four centre wheel and front bonnet (Hood to you guys in the USA) decals which are starting to corrode around the edges without any questions asked.
A pleasing result on the headlight as I was half expecting to have to make a stand due to the time since we purchased the car in February this year.
Has anyone else had this decal corrosion issue on an 18 month old F25 X3 ?

UPDATE !!!
All decals and the headlight unit replaced and headlamp beams adjusted, what a difference. No queries whatever.
Have replaced the OEM headlights again with the HID kits that I had originally fitted as took them out as BMW dealers won't touch anything that is different to OEM fitments. Now have terrific dip/main beam headlights that actually point in the right direction ;-).
