FS: Carbon rocker panel trim
Just got a 16 E63S4S, and while a big leap from a v70R, am enjoying it!
Long list of things I want to do, but one of the first, strangely enough, is to swap my factory carbon fiber rocker panel trim pieces that came with it new , for the silver ones. This wagon is Obsidian Black, and the carbon blades just don't show up.
They are gorgeous on anything lighter, and these are like new.
Anybody interested?
Anybody know how the best way to remove and replace?
cheers!

As much as I want to say "sell them to me!" I think your best bet would be to just wrap them in your desired color and keep the CF pieces with you. Fast forward to selling, and a buyer / dealer wanting the CF pieces, you wont like the cost of replacing them with factory bits if you can't find any second hand.
That said, if you part with the CF insert I'll buy them.

Will take them off in the most careful way possible, so will have to read-up on that process. Will take pics too.
PM and will talk - thx.
