Perverts...

anyway, I need this piece of side molding that appears to be NLA from BMW. It is the right side rear quarter on an E36 vert PN 19772480. Any superior googlers out there?

I'm ok-ish with used, mine actually rusted out the interior structure so it won't hold the clips anymore

Car-part, search for right rear quarter panel. If found then call them and just try to buy trim piece

The reason I'd rather find one new on a shelf is that they are $35 or so new and all of that used. Hoping someone is awesome at searching deep and can find one somewhere in the abyss of the internet lol

That cracked me up. Hadn't heard it called that in 100 years

Have you tried any of the independent BMW parts sources - Blunttech, Pelican Parts, Schmiedmann, FCP euro and so on? They can sometimes source parts that don't show up anymore in the factory parts system.

Didn't try blunttech, others yes. Heading there now

Edit: not on their site. I'll call some folks tomorrow as well

We have a long-established indie BMW and Volvo guy in town here. If you haven't found anything by Tuesday, I'll give him a call. (It's Canadian Thanksgiving tomorrow.)
