Another option to find out if there are holes drilled in the door panels would be to take off the interior panel and see if anything is drilled through from the outside. This would be more labor intensive but it could give you a more concrete answer. It's hard for any of us to tell regarding the hole drilling since no one, including yourself, know how the moldings were installed.

It's a factory part.

It's called the rocker molding panels or rocker moulding panels depending on which side of the pond u live.

Held on by adhesive. The part is is a whopping $51 per strip!!!! Adhesive is $15. LOL

It comes off

use a heat gun and heat it ever so lightly then floss or fish line and work ur way through. take it easy. U can use bug and tar remover afterwards. Goo gone may burn the paint if ur rough and careless with it.

Wow - who woulda thought they could be factory parts available for BMW's on the other side of the pond .
I'm sure the OP appreciates you going the extra mile and doing the research - you da man

I think they should be called "Mall Door Ding Targets"
