I'm still thinking of getting new wood trim...
I'm still considering buying Euro birchwood trim for the 330.. The Myrtle Wood trim it has stock is really ugly.. it's almost a flat brown, and it's the exact color of crap. Is there anywhere to buy it, other than from Eurobuyers? I'm not sure if I trust aftermarket companies.. After my experiences with Advanced Autovations, Umnitza, and CustomAngelEyes, I'm NOT about to buy from a company like that. I assume it's a no, but if I got the part numbers could my dealer order it? If not, what about a place like Crevier? Or am I stuck with the crap?

CJ: I think that if you really want the wood, trim that is, call Vaheh at Crevier and see whether he can get it for you and at what price. If he can and it's a palatable price, then you're done. If he can't get it, I'd suggest either taking the chance with Eurobuyers, hitting up someone in Europe to buy it from a Euro BMW dealer, or have your poop brown trim painted. Good luck young squire.

Spend your parents money on a wood kit for a car that you will drive for 7 more months (middle of next year)? I wish I had your problems CJ
