So we did :). We have stock on them for both the Coupe and Sedan with the Motorsports International racing flag emblems.
These moldings are semi textured (see pictures)


Whats Included?
Full Set of ABS Plastic Side Moldings

Awesome deal! Might just have to pick up a set later this week for the sedan.

[APXDDM-SD]

Thanks for the orders.
These things are moving quick.

-Marcus

[BL4CK-OUT]

How much for just the badges alone?

[jsp98m3]

Badges are not available separately at this time. We get them one for one.

Jim

[DrifterX27]

are these all the moldings? I need the rear bumper moldings.

[solgoodband]

How much for a set of these ( coupe or vert fitment) shipped to postal code V3Y 1J3 in Canada. I want to order asap. Also do I order via phone as well?

[jsp98m3]

Probably about $30 shipping. The box is not big. This would include brokerage and all that stuff. But give us a call and we'll nail the shipping exactly.

Phone is 858-565-1742

Jim

[jsp98m3]

are these all the moldings? I need the rear bumper moldings.

We have rear moldings. I'm in the middle of a website overhaul, stage 1 of 3 or 4 and I don't have everything on the website that we have. Call in please.

[SilburSurfer]

Question: Do you have the velocity splitters in not carbon fiber, and are you going to be getting any other lip spoliers, LTW, GTR, RS, etc.

[jsp98m3]

We have Velocity Splitters in Polypropylene too. They are $55.00. You can get 15% off that with DDM Wholesale Club pricing. I will have them up on the site tomorrow. I have to find out where that idjit Marcus stored the pictures :)

We will have other splitters soon. I just bought another big pile of stuff today. I have to rest tonight before shopping again in the morning. :)


Jim

[cosmom3]

Do you sell the clips w/ grommets separately by any chance?

[jsp98m3]

No, we just order these all fully assembled, ready to go. The clips are available cheaply at the dealer though.

Jim

[BMW525i]

can't believe you guys got them that fast and you have the motorsport badges:buttrock

[BMW525i]

DDMTuning is the best, hands down. i ordered oem fogs, black grill, smoked corner/tails for my e36 and there products are amazing.

[cosmom3]

No, we just order these all fully assembled, ready to go. The clips are available cheaply at the dealer though.

Jim Got quoted a ridiculously high price.:(

Do these trim pieces differ in texture at all from OEM?

[Rakshas]

Where is MBe36? He's been looking for these for years.

[TIMSGT]

:buttrock will call tomorrow

[Pswirley]

:buttrock will call tomorrow


Please do not rickroll me.

[happycamper]

never gonna give you, never gonna let you down, never gonna make u cry, never gonna run around and desert you, never gonna tell a lie and Hurt you!!!!

will call at 9am

[jsp98m3]

Got quoted a ridiculously high price.:(

Do these trim pieces differ in texture at all from OEM?

The texture is not smooth and its not as heavily textured as the original pieces. You can paint them or leave them as is and they won't be out of place.

I'm not sure what price you were quoted from the dealer. But give us a call. We seem to have a knack for getting great prices. If we can get them for you cheaper, we'll pass the savings on to you. If you are planning on ordering something, clips and such can be tossed in without affecting shipping costs. Otherwise, we have these little boxes we can put stuff like this in and mail them for next to nothing.

Jim

[johnnybad1]

Hey man can you ship a set of M3 moldings and side skirts up to Calgary, Canada, T2P 2V7.

Thanks,

[jsp98m3]

Yep, we can do that. Give us a PM with your phone number so we can call you.

I thought you had to pay $50 to have a membership to DDM Wholesale Club?

[jsp98m3]

I thought you had to pay $50 to have a membership to DDM Wholesale Club?

You do. Then idiots that we are, we give you a $50.00 credit on your order.

So it works out to be free.


I swear, I'll make it up on volume ;)

Jim

I'm lost, sorry I feel like an idiot. I tried to send you a PM but your not receiving any. I ordered a lot of parts from you guys before and was just curious on how to receive the wholesale price.

Can't wait to order these, they looks amazing!!!!

[jsp98m3]

If you join the Wholesale Club, there is a $50 charge. BUT, then we give you a $50 credit off your order PLUS 15% on most merchandise that isn't already on sale.

So, lets look at the moldings as a sample order.

Line Item 1 = Moldings @ 100.00
Line Item 2 = DDM Wholesale Club @ 50.00

Sub total = 150.00

Line Item 3 = DDM Wholesale Club Member Credit @ -50.00
Line Item 4 = DDM Wholesale Club Member Discount @ -15.00 (15% merchandise Discount)

So, your total is 150.00 - 65.00 = $85.00 total + shipping.

DDM Wholesale Club Membership is free for the first 12 months with the credit back to your account. PLUS you get another 15% off the product.

Jim

[DEFKON99]

Thanks Jim;)

[jsp98m3]

We are going to add wheels. But we also recommend several affiliated retailers for now.

What wheels are you looking for? We'll see what we can do for you NOW.

For those of you looking for specific trim, please call in. A lot of the stuff isn't on the website because we will be launching a new one very soon and that is using up a lot of our time, mine at least.

Jim

[BMW525i]

just called to order these and you guys where probably busy, no one picked up. i'll try again later.

[jsp98m3]

Try calling again. Most people (including us) are gone at 5pm. But we'll be here for a couple of minutes

[jsp98m3]

After you called back, I stayed and taped up your box and put the label on it and sat it on the dock so its ready to go for the first pickup on Monday.

Thanks for the order. Let me know how you like them.

Jim

[happycamper]

Damn you guys are fast ordered at 1ish shipped out today expect to see it tommorrow you guys are quick

Excellent customer service and thanks for all your help Jim.

[espguitarist]

I'm thinking about getting some of these....they look great, I just need to think it over...I've got a lot of other stuff I need to do to the car first before I worry about minor cosmetics such as this. I'm definately interested though and you may be hearing from me soon.

[jsp98m3]

Got a zillion of them. No rush.

[abracadaverrr]

Badges are not available separately at this time. We get them one for one.

Jim

:(:(:(:(

please let us know when you do sell them separately!!

&&&&

do you guys sell the front lower lip spoiler by itself (e36 M3)?
im in need of one!

[asuj158]

Any pics of the splitters?

[jsp98m3]

We'll have pics up shortly. We are getting some more styles in shortly too.

Jim

[BL4CK-OUT]

Jim,

Can you do anything for the E36 Sedan LED tails? What would the discount be for a Wholesale Club Member? I wish you guys sold them in the red/smoked options like the normal tails, too :(

[jsp98m3]

We have E36 LED tails (DEPO Brand) in Coupe and Sedan both. DDM Wholesale Club discounts apply.

I can check on getting them in smoked. How does that Lamin-X smoked stuff look on tails? I know they make it.

Jim

[zx7rhitch]

E36 M3 Side moldings I need do you have in stock.I cant any information on your site or a e-mail to contact you with.Ive spent about aan hour and only came up with a picture...Thanks

Jim

Sounds good. Can you check on the smoked option for the sedan LED tails just like the regular Depo red/smoked ones? Please let me know, I need replacements ASAP!

[jsp98m3]

Sure, we can get all of that taken care of for you on Monday.

Jim

[The Ripe Punani]

I've been looking for the M3 moldings for ages that haven't costed an arm and a leg...very nice DDM Tuning. Ordered the black grilles from you guys before and loved them. :) Now I know what I'm buying when I get my next paycheck.

[MetaGear89]

praise be to god

[BL4CK-OUT]

Sure, we can get all of that taken care of for you on Monday.

Jim

Awesome, please do keep me posted as I need some replacements!

Back on topic :)

[zx7rhitch]

Side skirts?You missed my question.Thanks

[jsp98m3]

Yes, we have sideskirts and side moldings both in stock. I'll have one of the guys get in touch with you on Monday if needed. Tomorrow I'll make sure all of the items are updated on the website.

Jim

[asuj158]

what other types of splitters are you guys getting?

[cougar]

I installed the new inverters that You sent me on Friday, Last night they were not working, my angel eyes on the Passenger side no problem after replacing the drivers side with the new ones they worked fine on Friday and last night they died. Please send a new set asap. PSwirley took care of me I am in NJ. Thanks,

[jsp98m3]

Hmmm. It sounds like there may be something else going on too. I'll have Casey get ahold of you in the morning.

Jim

[zx7rhitch]

Thanks Im definetly interested.Price,what kind of material,shipping cost etc and mounting hardware e e gsd know about.Thanks again

[jsp98m3]

Cougar,

Please check in with us on Monday. You are not the only one with a MyCarr inverter that apparently lasted one day. We want to replace both of those inverters with ones we source separately.

Jim

[frost12850]

Hey Jim, Im still having a hell of a time with this drivers side headlight closing up. Sorry to go off topic in here but I was just wondering if youll be in the office on monday so Id be able to talk directly to you about this issue??

[jsp98m3]

Yep. And if it just won't close and stay closed, lets get you a new one.

Jim

[gdaddy]

is it possible to sell me just the front door moldings? I have a sedan and have the wide M3 moldings but do not have a "hole" for the M3 badge that I have bought.

[jsp98m3]

We can't sell them as partial sets at this time. Maybe when any demand settles down. But basically, its all or nothing at this point.

Jim

[espguitarist]

How much would it run me to buy the M moldings along with the rear bumper moldings, shipped all together? zip code - 30040

I'm also considering your E36 M front bumper...just out of curiousity, and if it's not too much trouble, could you tell me how much it would cost me for the bumper and all the moldings. I read that you guys can put extra stuff in the giant bumper box to cut down on shipping.

Thanks again!

[frost12850]

Hey Jim, I just got off the phone with you guys and they suggested sending the light back to get it shut and then theyd send it back. Any chance you guys would be able to send a replacement and I just send you guys back the one I cant get shut? I wont mind paying for shipping or whatever we have to do to resolve this, Im willing to work with you guys to figure it out. Thanks!

[cougar]

Jim, Spoke with Casey today and he is shipping me new set of inverters I hope this takes care of the problem angel eyes, will let you know. Do you have a source for LM reps or RS reps. or CH reps?? 18's with lip. Staggered????

[solgoodband]

Did my order ship out today and if so can I have a tracking number please?

[jsp98m3]

Need a couple of pictures of your light. We have two revs of it and we would need to know what ya got. Can you call in tomorrow and send us a couple of pics?

Jim

[jsp98m3]

What is your name? If you are waiting for moldings, be aware that we will be sending you an envelope with some clips for the motorsport badges.

JimStuart Reid and are you sending the clips separately? That sounds like there's gonna be lost or misplaced items with Fedex again.

[jsp98m3]

Stuart Reid and are you sending the clips separately? That sounds like there's gonna be lost or misplaced items with Fedex again.

Nope. We just found out that we shipped them out and the manufacturer left clips out of some of them. So, we are sending everyone that has already shipped some clips just to make sure so you don't have to be the ones to find out if they are in there or not. Just being proactive.

And so has my order been shipped and if so tracking info please?

[jsp98m3]

I don't know, I'm at home. I believe so, there hasn't been any reason to hold them

Jim

[jsp98m3]

Give me a little while. I'll log into the system shortly after Taiwan updates and get you tracking.

Jim

[solgoodband]

I don't know, I'm at home. I believe so, there hasn't been any reason to hold them

JimWHAT!!! I thought you were at work 24/7. It seems like you're on here all the time. It doesn't seem to matter when someone asks you something, you respond quickly. Actually I gotta say that I've been checking out a lot of DDM Tunings growth here on the forum and how you've handled your business. Even when there were a few "complaints" you handled it with decisive action and you just fix things with no B.S. That's the way to do it, customer service 1st - what a strange concept :rolleyes This is my first purchase through your company but surely the first of many. Keep up the good work - Cheers

[jsp98m3]

I was even posting from the veterinarian's office this afternoon. Gotta love iPhones.

[jsp98m3]

I'll be buying a bunch of them. Every sales person in the company has or will get one.

Jim

[BMW525i]

wish i worked for ddmtuning:)

[jsp98m3]

That's the other thing we hear all the time.

Being at DDM Tuning is like living in a Shamwow commercial ;) You have to watch it in real time to believe it.

jim

[Pswirley]

SHAMWOW commercial that gets rickrolllllled ALOT. LOL>

[jsp98m3]

If we can't have fun and save consumers insane amounts of money, we might as well just go be gazillionaires.

But, for God's sake, don't tell that to the she-demon.

[Pswirley]

Be careful Jim,

Toby is reporting your posts to said she-demon.

As opposed to rewriting it, here is my post from earlier, I didn't get a response. Also, again if it's not too much trouble, could you run the numbers for both types of bumper? (the exact replica and the $115 shipped one)

Much appreciated :D

[gab325]

Do the M-3 moldings fit on a non M e36?

Are these BMW parts or are they replicas?

[Roth21]

How do the motorsport badges stay in the moldings?

[Roth21]

So they haven't been shipped yet? I ordered and paid last Friday and was told they would be shipped Monday for sure. Jim told me that you guy's would be sending the clips seperately.

Nevermind.

[Luikens]

Damn, I still haven't had time to put the M3 bumper, fogs, or the headlights on yet (let alone take them out of the box). And now you guys get the moldings...I guess theres nothing left to do but buy them and put them in the pile. Any idea how much shipping will be to Wichita, ks? Any idea of when the suspensions will be coming in?

To Wichita is probably about $8.

Coilovers start arriving in a couple of weeks. I'll be showing some pics of samples early next week.

I would like to order a set for a 4-door, but only if they are in stock and ready to go. Confirm and I'll call :)

[The Ripe Punani]

100% confirmed in stock.

If you join the Wholesale Club, there is a $50 charge. BUT, then we give you a $50 credit off your order PLUS 15% on most merchandise that isn't already on sale.

So, lets look at the moldings as a sample order.

Line Item 1 = Moldings @ 100.00
Line Item 2 = DDM Wholesale Club @ 50.00

Sub total = 150.00

Line Item 3 = DDM Wholesale Club Member Credit @ -50.00
Line Item 4 = DDM Wholesale Club Member Discount @ -15.00 (15% merchandise Discount)

So, your total is 150.00 - 65.00 = $85.00 total + shipping.

DDM Wholesale Club Membership is free for the first 12 months with the credit back to your account. PLUS you get another 15% off the product.

Jim

I just placed an order for sedan moldings, I added the wholesale club membership and paid via PayPal...

My total came to $165? With it described above, I thought all I would hand over was the $100.00...Can you explain?

The website can't deal with the membership and the discount at the same time. You should have paid $85 plus shipping.

If you have checked out and paid by paypal, you will be getting a partial refund when the guys enter your order.

If you checked out, but supplied a credit card, then you have not been charged yet and the salesguys will only charge you 85 plus shipping. This kind of confusion is why we recommend people call in to join or use their DDM Wholesale Club membership. Our new website will deal with this much better.

Jim

[gdaddy]

Thanks for responding, Jim! :)

[jsp98m3]

No problem. Expect your refund today. I saw the order you made in the Yahoo Stores store manager. Since you paid by paypal, it did charge you but you will get about half that money back in a couple of hours.

Jim

[The Ripe Punani]

When are you guys updating your website?

[GG///M3]

does this include the rear, and front bumper moldings?

[///BMW]

I'll be calling Monday :)

[BMW525i]

does this include the rear, and front bumper moldings?

no it's only the door moldings

[jsp98m3]

When are you guys updating your website?

As soon as I can get another 40 hours of free time.


LOLOLOOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!

Seriously, I have to work on it constantly. Plus I have a developer doing a custom one for us.

Jim

[calypso bimmer]

Jim,

I know you mentioned you would put up instructions for the side skirts on the ddm site the other day, can you put them up?


Two of the white clips with the green grommets do not hold on to the underside of the m3 mouldings, they popped out when I was pushing the mouldings in and now I am unable to properly attach the moulding.

Any ideas? edit- used some epoxy to hold the clips back on.


Thanks

[happycamper]

do u even need the green ones?

[MetaGear89]

use double sided tape

[calypso bimmer]

pics of mouldings with the clips not clipping properly. I will try double sided tape tomorrow

[The Ripe Punani]

Seriously, I have to work on it constantly. Plus I have a developer doing a custom one for us.

Jim

Haha, I see. I was just wondering, not trying to push you or anything. :)

[happycamper]

looks like one of your clips broke when one breaks it doesnt hold well

[atlantisvip]

DAMN ! I'm stuck between these and the mirrors now.. Got a feeling Im gonna walk out of there with more than just my bumper :)

Join the DDM Wholesale Club (http://www.ddmtuning.com/ddmwhcl.html) when you come in and you'll leave with some jingle too.

I'll look into the clips issues. I have some pull with the factory I'll see if I can do something to make our offering unique.

Jim I just PM'ed you guys about my partial refund. Can you look into this for me?

Cant wait to get my moldings! :)

[BMW525i]

i just got my moldings today and they looked great. so i took off all my stock moldings and went to put these on. the smaller front part went on great (2nd pic). the larger door molding itself went on terrible, as you could see only one clip is holding it up. likewise the last molding near the rear tire did not go on either:(

it seems like the clips on the moldings are the wrong size and not even coming close to snapping it, there to small. here's some pics below.

[calypso bimmer]

The best solution to this is to just epoxy the mouldings on, I had similar problems, and rather than send them back and have to pay shipping costs this makes a lot of sense as long as you don't plan on taking them off.

i guess that would work but i didn't want it to come down to that. i looked to see if the oem clips that came off the stock moldings would clip onto the new ones but the runner where they clip onto is different.

[gdaddy]

is everyone with these moldings having fitment issues? If that is the case I definetly DO NOT want the moldings..I already placed an order on Friday...maybe they have not shipped mines yet? What do you guys think? Is this situation a deal breaker?

[BMW525i]

the moldings are very nice and look awesome, but the clips just don't do what there suppose to. i'm sure there is a easy solution.

[NHbmw325I]

Would buying new m3 clips from the dealer work? I assume the OEM m3 side moldings have slightly different clips to the non-m ones? If that would work, I would buy a set of the moldings.

we would need to see an m3 moldings and look at the back to see what the clip clips onto. if it's the same as these, it'll work.
good idea. oem clips are quality

[espguitarist]

I'm just gonna wait till all of this is sorted out before I buy mine...I'm not epoxying moldings to my doors, not if they're supposed to clip on. They look great though, BMW525i, yours look awesome.

[calypso bimmer]

I used epoxy to hold the clips back in place as two of them would not hold on to the moulding and used a very small amount on the actual moulding and it turned out perfect - no evidence of epoxy. I only had this problem on one of the mouldings the drivers side big one with the badge.

i have my stock moldings on now, they didn't clip on so i took them off. i didn't have time to mess around with them. they looked good from 10ft away cause they weren't staying on.

[Pswirley]

We will have a pictorial installation DIY posted tomorrow for those of you struggling with the install of the side moldings.

-Casey


Pictures will help explain this better but I have the feeling that if you try to mount clips this way ( II ) instead of this way ( = ) you will see a better result. We are going to do a step by step in the morning.

[jsp98m3]

Yeah guys, I wouldn't worry about it. We had a guy call last week and he was having problems, we walked him through it and he got them on while we were on the phone with him.

We'll get some pics up for you.

so that guy used the green circle things/oem m3 moldings clips to attach his side moldings? those clips hes using looks exactly like the ones for the side skirts.

[amdspitfire]

guys put the condom's in the door first, clips on the molding, then press in.

[APXDDM-SD]

Alot of the times, even with OEM moldings, they don't sit flush by just applying constant pressure. If you give it a good smack with the bottom of your palm the clips will go in. Like AMDSPITFIRE said, put the little grommets in first, then smack the moldings in once they are aligned

Happy Modding,

It is easy to do, but if the white clips do not hold on to the mouldings [2 of my white clips failed to hold] then it becomes a little difficult and you will need to epoxy the clips back on.

How about instructions for the side skirts?

For stuff Like that I recommend professional installation. If you don't feel comfortable doing it without a DIY i would have a body shop do it. Also we don't have any e36's that have no holes predrilled for sideskirts. All the E36's we have have side skirts already.Making it hard for us to do an extensive DIY.

-Marcus

[gdaddy]

No problem. Expect your refund today. I saw the order you made in the Yahoo Stores store manager. Since you paid by paypal, it did charge you but you will get about half that money back in a couple of hours.

Jim

Marcus and Jim..
I am still waiting for my $65 refund. I called today and spoke with Marcus. He told me that my refund will be done "in a few minutes". Its now been a few hours...please look into this for me ASAP, please.

Gary, I shot you the refund a while ago Via paypal.
Its just a matter of time before it gets processed by them.
Mondays are hectic, and im doing my best to get every task accomplished.
Keep an eye out for your partial refund
-marcus

[jsp98m3]

For whatever reason, Paypal does a bank withdrawal to do refunds even when money is sitting in paypal.

I have no idea if this is normal or not, it just always seems to happen this way. Yours is pending along with the transfer from our bank account. All while hundreds of dollars sits there idle.

Swear at the paypal gods.

going to try that right now, i didn't know you had to take off the green things and put it in first. will let you guys know very shortly;)

[BMW525i]

well they certainly snapped into place and fit great just like in the short video. of course i'm an idiot and the idea the green things have to come off the clips never crossed my mine.

my only complaint is the front/driver's molding, the front is still loose and never completely tight again the car because there's no clip in front, there's only a plastic piece that just chills in the molding hole. it's an easy fix though, just need to think of what i could put under there so they sit flush and not loose.

[stupenal]

sigh...anyone else remember the days before DDM? Mouldings (before the euro skyrocketed) were $180....OEM M3 bumpers in trashed condition would sell for $350...m3 mirrors were $250...etc

Same goes for lighting - $300 for a set of DEPO? Even then, people called you a cheapskate for buying DEPO instead of zkw. HIDs...wow...$300 for HIDs. I still see on other boards (motorcycle especially where they don't understand how HID prices have dropped like a rock) vendors selling HID kits for $140. ARE YOU KIDDING ME.

A bit nostalgic to think of back in the day when I would actively peruse the classifieds looking for used parts to save a penny or two.

Hey Marcus,

Just a question. I received the E36 splitters, but no mounting hardware for them. Do your splitters come with mounting hardware? If so, would you send some my way?

If not, what do you recommend using?

Regards,

Sergei

[APXDDM-SD]

Whats up Sergei,
They do not come with any mounting hardware. Youre going to have to pick up a couple of self tapping screws to install them. That or some bolts/ washers/nuts

Jim-Marcus,

Can you check with PayPal on this transaction? Seems to be in pending way too long than it should be. The partial refund transaction was in place Monday late-afternoon. Seems kind of long you think?

Some refunds just take longer than others.
Im not sure why it would still be pending. Sometimes their refunds are instant, and others it takes up to 5 business days. Who knows, paypal is a mysterious website.

Just received my missing badge for the M3 moldings. $85.00 for M3 moldings, $0.85 for green grommets to put moldings on to body. Look of M3 moldings on my baby PRICELESS LOL:buttrock

Thanks to all at DDM
I will be going back to my body shop shortly to have them swap out the new inverters you sent me to complete the deal.

Thanks, again.

What about wheels, M parallels for e36, or CSL reps in 18 staggered setup or LM reps?????

The worst part is that two of those on the side jobs pay better than my real job because they're landscaping. :rolleyes With all of that I still can't afford much...I'd love a set of Angel Eyes....can't afford them.

[m3mobbin]

These moldings are awesome, perfect fit and OEM finish. It's just plain common sense to install them. I helped CeloC install them last weekend and the only problem was he was missing a bunch of those mini-grommets for the mini clips that go on the ends of the moldings, one stop and the stealer and problem solved!

Great product guys!

Any chance you would be willing to just sell me the badges? I've got OEM moldings off another member but they come with the M3 badge...

Since my car isn't an M3, I don't want to mess up the M3 reputation but using them on my Non-M..:shifty

No badges by themselves at this time.

We may offer these in August. These come in the boxes 1 for 1. In August we will be Expanding our warehouse space again and I can stock more of these types of items.
