Replacing the B-Pillars.

Howzit all,

Follwing my previous thread about locking myself out of the car. I scratched and chipped the edges of the outside pillars on my 525i. :(:(

Are these replacable and how easy to replace them?


Thanks guys!

Sounds good. :D

What would that look like a on white BMW 525i? Anyone else got a their opinion on these?

And do they clip over the originals or what?

Thanks guys! :)

Yes, it would look fine... BUT! I tried a set before and it started to shrink and subsequently peel away from the top of the pillar. Of course this would depend on your climate. I then used a better adhesive and using a heat gun, 'massaged' it back into place.

it would look fine, but make sure you get the pillars that are complete c/f, there are a few sets with random circles cut out at the bottom... looks like poop.

those random circles are designed to be filled with 'M" stripes ..

i got the cf pillars on mine.. i can take a couple pics for you if you want
here's one from far away:

god.. not at all.. you basically have one chance to get em stuck on right, and if you stick em on and are off by even a bit you are screwed. and once those babies are on.. they are never coming off

they don't stick out much no.. maybe 1'8th inch

mine have seen wind and a ton of snow, inc is right, once theyre on theyre there for good. they really dont stick out much at all.
