Hello, can anyone tell me where i can get the chrome insert that goes round the windscreen, is it a bmw part or do i need to go somewhere like autoglass etc? Thanks.

BMW mate if it's still available. Have a look on http://bmwfans.info/parts/catalog/E30/ and if it's got a price next to the part number it should still be available :thumb:

Still available as far as I know, probably looking at about £80 to do the front & rear chrome beading. You'll need the diamond shape tool to fit them as they are an utter pain in the arse to fit without one.

Alternative to replacement. Mask off and paint matt black. Takes an hour and alot easier!!

Still available from the dealers... I paid about £60 for front and back last year, without the bracket clip things...


And if you can get the tool, do so.... I have fitted 2 now and it doesnt get any easier.
