If you're just coming upon this video today like I just did, it does work but let me share some tips. 1. If you're working on the front doors, take the panel and mirror off immediately. Don't even waste time trying to work around the mirror because you will bend things which brings me to... 2. Don't bend stuff. Don't whip it like he did. Just raise it gently inch by inch using your pry tool. 3. WHEN you do bend your trim, just take your time and be gentle as you reform it. Small bends while looking down it like a gun. 4. When you lift your weather strip be careful not to banana the thing by pulling up like he did. It has thin metal strips in it. Gently pry it like you did the trim. 5. WHEN you do bend your weather strip, gently bend it back just like you did your trim, but focusing mainly on the groove the trim mates with. Don't worry about the side the door mates with yet. 6. If the trim now pops right on, lucky you. But mine still wouldn't act right so I had to SLIDE the trim into the weather strip slowly with silicone lube in the track. This was a painstaking process because I didn't want to have to restraighten everything again. 7. Once you actually have the trim back in the groove, take a set of needle noses and work the rubber groove that goes into the door back straight again it may not be perfect but it needs to be straight enough to straddle the groove. 8. If you're doing the front doors, START WITH THE HOOK (OUTER) SIDE FIRST. Hook it to the end of your door then start working your assembled trim strip from there in. Use your pry tool to push the rubber straight as you go. After all the work, that final snap is borderline orgasmic.

🤣🤣, best trick it to just remove the panel, and mirror. Then yank the old silver junk off, and place the hooked end on nicely, then take a dead blow rubber mallet and gently smack down on the trim piece into the rubber groove. Works mint and doesn’t dent the trim or door even if you bang it pretty hard. Spent 2 hours messing around before trying this method

Hello, I 've always liked your videos Justin but I don't like this one.....doing this is crazy. I did it with my own e90 front driver's crhome and it was a nightmare. Removing the window strip is a very bad idea as it will bend because it's forced down when installed in the factory.Besides, you even have to remove the front mirror in order to do so!. Therefore, I DO NOT recommend this to anybody. In case you do remove the chrome trim, don't remove the strip. Just slide it in even if it's forced. Use a lubricant such as WD 40 and open the slot which is on the rubber strip. The chrome will never be like it was before but it will be hardly unnoticeable. However, the rubber strip could bend so badly that you could have water leaking afterwards and you will be forced to but a new one from BMW which is not cheap at all. Conclusion: DON'T DO THIS!
@omle Жыл бұрын
True, same problem with front driver door. It is very easy to bend window strip because it is made from aluminium and rubber. Moreover mirror cover is holding it, so this is very problematic place. As Alejandro wrote it is simpler to slide in chrome trim.
@mrsweete90653 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the upload, by the time I found this video the Shadow line and rubber seal was bent. I greased it up which made it worse as the shadow line popped out easier from the imperfections. I spent a while cleaning everything with cotton buds and kitchen towel taking extra time to get into the rubber lines. After that it was so much easier to pop in, and despite having imperfections on both the shadow line and rubber seal it's still gone on okay. So, it's well worth persevering, if anything I'd spend a lot of time cleaning everything.

@lukedavis19284 жыл бұрын
Hey Chen, No rubber seal on the upper chrome trim. It is a clip in system that runs along the upper window track. Use a panel tool and rag under the tool if you want to protect the car paint. Also be careful when you get to the rear door as a segment right before you get to the end / bottom of the upper trim is a separate section that will come off maybe as one piece or it might separate and will need to be glued / reattached when putting new trim back on.

Dude definitely remove it from the car when painting. I just blacked out the chrome on my E46 and it was a huge pain with all the masking off, and in the end I still had a bit of overspray on the window and 2 spots where the coverage was not perfect. In the end it is best to just take it off and do it that way. Additionally, if you have the option, it would be best if you powder coated it. Hope my experience helps out a bit ;)

You actually have to order the whole outer window sill from the BMW dealer which is weather striping + the chromeline trim piece, can't get it in any other way, at least not in new condition. I had a used one in Shadowline on for a week or two, but even though the guy was really careful removing it (watched him unmount the window lift mechanism etc) i could see it let rain drops run past it on the window glass.. had that Shadowline because it took my dealer 4 attempts to get the right part... good thing we pay premium prices on, erm, unpremium service like this.

Heck yes it is. I just took apart my whole door panel. I bought my car used and have had it for 2yrs. The side that hooks on the door came not hooked on but raised and its been an eyesore that I finally went through the labor to fix. I could get the trim off by pulling and sliding, but if you want to be gentle with your used weather stripping and avoid bending (which I highly recommend) then yes. You should remove the mirror, which requires basically disassembling the whole door
