So I should have purchased new L/R trim pieces a few years back because now they're listed at approx. $2,500 per side. They used to be about $500 IIRC. I just want to replace the short piece of rubber gasket at the end of the trim by the kink but apparently BMW does not sell that rubber separate from the trim itself. Has anyone found any work-arounds? That rubber tends to crack and eventually disintegrate. There's an eBay seller in Latvia or Lithuania selling the trim for a very reasonable amount but they want $12,000 for shipping! Also watching to find a used set but again, the rubber is usually chewed up. Thanks.
