Is there anywhere to buy the window trim for the 2 series in jet black?

cmbaldwin · 05-08-2014, 01:43 PM

Would I have to get them painted to match? I haven't seem them on getbmwparts or anywhere else. I like the chrome, but I eventually would like to get the black kidney grills and get all the other chrome bits to match the car color.

Window trims are expensive ($300-$400) get it wrap or plasti-dip

Yup will cost you $50 and you can do your windows and wheels also

How easy is to take the plasti dip off if you need to?

Very easy if for window trims...but i would never do an entire car

The trick is to apply multi layers

My coworker has been pushing plasti dip, I am watching videos for it right now and it looks easy enough.

I Plasti dipped the wheels on my 135i and X5 and this stuff is very durable! Check out my garage to see what it looks like on stock 264's. Your trim would be easy just mask off the other areas and make sure you use at least 4 even coats of the stuff.

I'd see if anyone wants to trade, post a few ads and give it a couple weeks before you do anything else. Someone out there w black might be dying to go chrome, different strokes...
