The "help me get my car fixed up during winter break" thread

[E34 530]

i bought those little metal/rubber things, then never ended up putting them on the car. they have been in a bag for a year now with the hardware for when my fuel pump dies.

in regards to painting the chrome, i used Wurth trim paint and taped off the rest of the car with masking tape, brown paper on a roll, and plastic sheeting. you really need to cover the entire side of the car, and anything else where the paint might go. turns out i left one tiny spot open, and now there is a black mark there. you will also need to let it dry and put a second and third coat on, otherwise there will be a slight silver shimmer.

What metal/rubber things, the strips for the lower door that go woth the M-tech skirts?? Can I find Wurth trim paint paint at any auto parts store?

What color are the door panels and package shelf?

tan/beige. Let me know if you want any pictures of them, they're in mint condition.

Cleaned up the skirts and removed some rust that was attached to some of the mounting screws.
