M-technics came OEM with shadowline, but most (90%) of the parts are NLA through BMW, and the rest are insanely priced. I've been down that road - unless you find a M-tech in a junkyard, forget about it! Just wait till it gets warm and use the SEM paint.

Thats what I am going to do. Patrick from BMA had some good prices, I thought but still expensive. I was really looking at just buying the OEM shadowlined door moldings. Which will run me about 100 to do both sides.

Yeah - the lower body side moldings in shadowline are nice - and worth buying the real thing since they might not hold up as nice with the OEM paint. I had to modify the rear molding stip to fit, because the mounting hole was different than on the car - but the rest is a direct swap. I think I posted something on doing this last summer.
Have you ever seen any euro 318ic's being parted out?
No, but I've never looked. I bet you might be able to find some on ebay.de or ebay.co.uk. It's even possible the dealer might have them--it seems like I heard awhile back they still carry that. Not sure though. To get the part numbers, I'd try going on RealOEM and setting up a euro 318ic.
The dealer still has them. I have the part numbers, they offer the option when you look up all the IC's on RealOEM thats how I got the part numbers. Patrick can do around $150-$200 for the whole car
