Great. Looks like I need a chrome window trim piece.

This has happened to me also. twice.

Glad to help you out, and good to hear my paddle made it to you ok! >i think we just got lucky. Next set i sell will be wrapped in newspaper and duct (or duck) tape.

Wouldn't know what to use, but there's gotta be some sort of way to polish/shine up the trim. Maybe you could get it to match.

It's nothing to worry about, and I am more than satisfied with the transaction given the piece(s) got to me perfectly intact! I seriously consider that a coup, and the shipping strategy was seriously very smart.

The trim piece looks totally fine, I did hammer it down a bit with product and one cannot tell any difference at 5 feet which is right in line with the condition of my paint, so I am happy. :D

lol - AGAIN with this BS.



To be fair, I was hauling ass through the stretch of road where it happened, or at least where I think it happened as I didn't notice it gone until I pulled into a gas station. I never saw it go - I just hope it didn't hit anyone when it took flight.

Looks like I'm in the market again!

PM on its way.

We have lots of them, pm if interested in another set.

check the clips that attach the front side of the trim piece. they may be worn, and if so are not holding your trim very tightly. the front piece always peels from the front to the back.

I keep driving up to CT to steal them, and then sell them back to you, hehe

And the third trim piece is gone.

Gentleman and scholar BenM had one for me and I installed the trim, crimped it and everything, and it really felt tightly secured to the car. I drove the 25 miles from home to work in West Hartford, got into it with a hothead in an ML500 that just couldn't accept being eaten alive by a 91 3-series, and sure enough it had blown off on the way in. I know I was north of 120 mph at one point due to the shift points, and remember thinking "good thing I spent the extra time to secure that trim piece."

Mmm hmm. Gone with the wind. It was on the car for less than 24 hours and I think at this point my only option is the dealer for a new piece and also have them install it for accountability. That way the next time it happens I can just bring it back and tell them to fix it.

What a total joke. :/

[Desaevious]

Shit man I'm sorry!

[Holland]

That really sucks. I totally feel bad.

[C-T]

It really is a fucking joke at this point.
