The lacquer/film (?) on the external passenger door pillar is flaking off - does anyone know what it is, is it easy/possible to replace it or is it a body shop job?

I know some cars that have a kind of sticker over these sections (Some mercs for example) was wondering if that kind of thing would be a decent replacement?

Cheers
