Upgrading my beloved Le Mans Blue E91 320d Sport Plus
Discussion
Hi everyone.
Gutted to see that a topic I’d started on this has been removed. Perhaps I hadn’t had a recent / new post in quite some time. That’s life I guess!
However just recently after being happy for 4/5 months with the repairs and upgrades I’d made to the car, I’ve had a few mishaps.
1. I’ve reversed into a large concrete pole and needed a couple of hundred pounds worth of some repair work done.
2. I also scuffed the alloys on one wheel badly
3. I also needed hubs and brake calipers replaced so had that done. I had these repainted black to match the rest and got the alloy refurbished also.
Now over the weekend I have now discovered the black plastic / vinyl at the top of the one of the doors that meets the glass on the window has come away and is flapping about.
Has anyone any advice on how to fix / repair this?
I will also take some pictures and post shortly.
Many thanks - I know there will be some genius and experienced fixers in here who can direct / guide me correctly. It feels like a superglue job but don’t want to jump in with two feet and get ahead of myself!

Ok so priced this at the dealership - £184! Yes this is just for the part not any fitting.Does anyone know or know how to find out what the part model no. for this would be?
I’d like to see if I could source it myself but can’t quite work it out. Have spent a few hours and got nowhere…any suggestions from some of you wise others?
The masking tape in the sun needs a lot of fixing. I need to move towards the more permanent solution.

This is brilliant thanks.Now excuse me for appearing slightly stupid but which part would you say is the one I actually need? Bottom trim of rear right passenger’s window…
I know you know but I look at the diagram and get myself confused…
