Is factory Shadowline trim available?

[mach schnell]

Can you still order factory Shadowline trim (like for around the windows), for a 2-door?

I don't want to do the SEM black trim paint trick. I'd like new factory trim, if available.

[Teaguer]

Yes.

[blunttech]

Yes.

NO.. I suspect teabagger misread this post as "do you like penis" and he answered as you would think he would

I think he means you can't get it as parts now.

Blunt, you fucking crack me up. :bow:

thats what i suspected. that kina sucks. I always thought I would go that route if the painted trim i did doesn't hold up.

I had mine powder-coated locally. Turned out very nice. Even dropped one on the garage floor, no scratches or chips.

If you prep it correctly it will hold up fine. I painted mine on my old car and used normal care and it held up 4 years until I sold it. Just scuff it and use good paint and youll be fine. Powdercoat is a good way to go too

just keep the bling.

Yeah i don't think the bodyshop prepped it right when the car was resprayed last summer. It has a couple minor chips, and i don't see any primer below.

I did respray one trim piece (scuffed & then etched primered it) before i shot it w/ SEM trim paint....and it worked like a charm.

Are any Shadowline parts available, or is it all gone?

[Bimmerista]

Negative...I inquired about it in December & they're all gone.

Not the first time either

Take it easy pops, don't expose these noob kids and their virgin eyes to your lascivious thoughts and desires! :p


Well I can say that i'm not surprised that they may not be available now.
Although when I looked for a few pieces last year they were still available.
After looking now it seems that most pieces are not available but a few bits are.

I do agree that painting with proper technique and materials is really the route to go.

Not the first time either

Shut it noob! :hitler:
