Repairing Aluminum interior trim

vanondemand · 02-28-2014, 04:30 AM

Anyone here with their aluminum interior trims with gouges and scratches to them? Whats the best way to go at repairing or refurbishing them?

Wrap it in CF Fabric. I'm planning on doing my trim soon as well.

If you did that you couldnt go back to aluminum. CF fabric is not CF wrap. Its real Carbon Fiber which is true to the look unlike that 3m crap.

Also I'm 99% positive there is no way to repair deep scratches like that.

Aluminum vynil wrap? There has to be some. Not sure about repairing that though.

I had a ding in the rear oddments cover. I just replaced that piece by ordering it from getbmwparts.com. That is probably your best bet. Order the single piece that has damage.
