Swap Aluminum Trim for any wood trim

Nh5651 · 07-07-2019, 10:57 AM

Long story Short: my wife wants wood trim in her f30 instead of the current aluminum, it's a pretty easy process to take out ( just clicks out ) my trim is in perfect condition car is practically new with 3k miles on it, let me know if anyone wants aluminum instead of there current wood/black trim

Try posting in the regional NJ/NY section. Perhaps someone local to you would be interested in a swap: https://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/fo...play.php?f=401

Wrap it.

....because some people cannot tell the difference between plastic and wood in real life :LOL:

There are many examples of swapped and wrapped trim in the Cosmetic and Lighting section.

I have a F33 convertible and to the eye it looks identical to the other F30 models trim.

Does anyone here know if there is a difference in the F30 trim between the different models and/or years?
Is there a datbase where I can compare pn#?

The F33 has a hole in center trim for convertible top (and only 2 door handle trims)
