Title: Anodised windscreen trims.
Post by: stickandrudderman on July 18, 2024, 12:40:58

Most of you will know that the original windscreen trims are anodised aluminium.
It's been a few years since I last bought some and since I've become increasingly disillusioned with the quality of "genuine" parts supplied by the dealer I'm reluctant to spend £1300 on new ones if they are not going to meet expectations.
Specifically, that they are indeed anodised as per the originals or simply poliushed. (I have plenty of used ones I could polish if that's all I'm going to get).
Likewise, has anyone bought them from SLS or Niemoller etc recently and able to vouch for the quality?

We bought 2 yrs ago from Niemoller two sets. Perfect fit on both cars.

Thanks Sead,
Can you confirm they are anodised?
