Where to get interior trim removed, CFL - BMW 3-Series (E90 E92) Forum

GreenPlease · 01-24-2010, 05:25 PM

I'm doing a trim swap with a member on the boards and I'd like to know where would be a good place to have my trim swapped out in the Orlando area. I suppose I could do it myself but I'd rather pay someone $50 and not have to worry about screwing it up.

Its pretty simple. But Im sure one of the guys at PSI could do it. Hell, I'd do it, but I havent pulled the trim off of a E9x yet.

Thanks for reminding me of PSI, I'll give them a call.

Using a flat screw driver it takes about 30 seconds. I wish I was closer so I could make an easy $50. Ive had my interior in and out about 20 times now.

Damn, 20 times? Hey, what are you doing in the Florida section anyways?

I wrap trim in CF and am very familiar with the removal process. It is very easy to remove your existing trim. The shiftknob just pull it straight up, it will come off. There are a few wires here and there, but very easy to pull off. In regards to removing the trim, use a plastic scraper or drivers license. Do not use a screwdriver, it can chip your trim as well as your leather. Here is a link on how to remove it.

If I can be of any further assistance, let me know. Good luck.

I'm in Windermere (right next to Dr. Phillips, south-west side of town). I got the trim taken care of though. Sides were easy. Left vent was easy. Center console and dash were a major PITA. New trim comes tomorrow
