94 525i Inner Door Trim/Moulding Shrinkage Issue
Door trim is shrinking and I haven't found a thread. Can this be fixed or is it a replace issue?

Or you can pickup trim from parts car. Cut and add.
I actually purchased new trims for the fronts (both driver and passenger) and moved the original fronts to rear and cut/removed the extra length. If you move the front-passenger side to rear-driver side and front-driver side to rear-passenger side, the tight 90 degree bends on the trim align perfectly to the rear doors tight bends and the seam aligns exactly on the door sill just the factory new trims.

I also cut from a piece of spare trim from a junk car. Works very well.
