My Ride: 2006 550i 6spd
I believe my 550 with M Package came with shadow trim, I noticed the passenger side of the trim is coming off a little bit. I've applied pressure a couple of times, but the trim always finds its way up a little bit. What kind of adhesive should I use? I'm too lazy to take it back to BMW for such a problem.
Thanks
