Chrome side window trim

Post by alviesinger42 »

Hi Folks,

I have a 1986 635csi in the UK, she is in pretty good shape but is missing some chrome trim around the side windows.
I have the chrome sections that go under the windows, but am missing the four sections that go up the pillars and over the top of the windows, on both sides of the car.

I know that I can buy a couple of the four bits from BMW, but the other two bits are not made any more.

Does anyone have second hand parts I can buy ? Or any creative ways to make it look a bit better than it does. The previous owner had been experimenting with filler and paint on the channels, but the paint doesn't really look like chrome.

Any advice welcomed.

Cheers
Richard
