[ibnuamzah]

Anyone knows where can I buy the new glossy black trim for e46 318i?

Interior trim or your front grill? You can spray it anyway..

You mean shadowline trim ... it's very expensive if buy from BMW and the next best thing is to have it painted. Alternatively you can have it vinyl wrap and it's been done before.
The shadowline trim for the rain gutter for example will cost you RM1.7 for one side if buy from BMW dealership ... If you order it from stuttgart or auto bavaria i guess will cost less but still in excess of RM1k.

Gulp! Very expensive ha..Actually i've bought it b4 from kedai potong the flat black trim then install it to my car. After a while, it started to produce uneasy sounds like "creek..creek"..That is why i changed it back to the chrome one and now start looking for new one. I've tried to wrap it but not lasting. It will tear after a week..my budget below 1.5k for both sides..any info?

I'll try. Do u have any idea how much per clip cost? Any estimation? I was told the trim needs many clips.
