The product is of excellent quality and fits perfectly
5/5

When a part is just as good as its description, I'm thrilled. One of them is this. The installation process is very simple. I had no problem mounting these on my 2001 E46 The cabin air intake and various components of the cabin needed to be cleaned and disinfected for about 30 minutes. I love the look of the jacket and the way it fits.

Exactly how I wanted it
5/5

It took about 20 minutes to replace the old one with this, after I had expected it to take the entire afternoon. The old one was exactly the same as the new one, with all of the clips already attached. My time to replace this was longer than the time it took to remove the wipers.

Fits a 2006 BMW 330CI Convertible just right
5/5

I was unable to use the original cover on my Son's car because it was in such bad shape. Ninety percent of the rubber edge had broken and the cover was fading to an ugly gray colour. There was no damage to the cover when it was delivered in its new packaging. A new set of clips was already attached to the cover to allow for easy installation. After getting the old one off and installing the new one, it was a simple process to replace it. I was blown away by the results!.

It is the cover that goes over the windshield
4/5

The item arrived on time and was exactly as advertised. The item appears sturdy and should last for some time. The anchors snap into place. This is just like the original one, so no glue is needed. There is a snap-on mechanism.

The windscreen cowl has been damaged
3/5

In the long cardboard box in which I received my windshield cowl, there seemed to be an inch or so of extra space because part of the cowl was sticking out when I picked it up from the UPS office, and the tip of the cowl The cowl still had a thread of rubber connected to the broken part of the end, so the part was still hanging by a thread. It is important that something new you buy look perfect when you pay big bucks for it!.

A perfect fit for the 2002 BMW 325ci
5/5

That arrived faster than expected. Thanks a lot! I found the fit to be perfect and the installation to be simple. The new cracked one looks a lot better than the old.
