You might be able to use the parts from your original lights? You know the ones that you are removing to replace with the blacklines?

HUH?
This makes no sense.
You broke something on your trunk?
Your trunk is metal, i don't think you broke it.
You need to post some pictures.

I believe BMW parts come with 2 year warranty. Correct me if I am wrong.

Last time I did the same thing to my M3 and they replaced it.
