Beltline trim - Feedback on plastic replacement
ryansti replied to Todd21's topic in BMW 2002 and other '02
I have the 1/2" autozone trim on my 70 1600. It fits and looks great. -
For rain gutter trim my friend used an old round end bottle opener. Started near the hood, rolls it off without any damage. Took less then two minutes to get both sides off.
-
Another one

My 70 1600 is on 185/60-13 tires with 13x6 wheels. Fenders are rolled and pulled.
-
It's just dark grey on the end, unless you bend down and get a foot away you would never even notice.

I can take some more pictures tonight. It's flawless around the bends.

I was going to order the real deal but then the beltline trim for the nose became NLA as far as I know.
-
yea I was going to order those euro bumper covers for $200 but figured the autozone trim would work the same.
-
Yes, and they are painted on both sides, no bare metal.
-
The beltline is 1/2" sold in 18ft rolls. Bumper is 2".
-
I even used 2" autozone trim on the rear bumper
-
Few more pictures

I got my 1600 back from paint and ended up going with the $14 autozone trim. Saved over $900 and I think it looks great! The Malaga and Nevada go good together.
-
Thanks Charlie. Yea I think it looks great!
-
Part number S37750 at autozone. 1/2" and 18ft roll.
-
Autozone has the 1/2" in stock.$14.99 for a roll. Picked some up yesterday.
-
Looks great, how many feet did it take? Would two 15ft rolls be enough?
-
Nice work!
-
Thanks, it was inspired by your car.
-
Checked up on my 1600 today. I think its going to look great!

ryansti replied to layers's topic in BMW 2002 and Neue Klasse Events
Been looking forward to the show, hope my 1600 is done in time. -
Very interested, email sent. -
Front and rear bilsteins, 2 coils cut off the front and 1.5 off the rear. Also has IE fixed camber plates in the front. Probably doing coilovers soon though.
