Looks like MVP is now offering E9 beltline trim. I haven't seen it so can't comment on quality. Their website is kind of wonky when you try to calculate a real price, I guess since they sell through partners too. Can't even determine if there are tariffs involved.

 
They list a bunch of dealers in the US.


Mostly in CA.
 
i have added MVP to the FAQ - top sources list ... would love to hear from anybody who has bought these ... but being that W+N and Stefan Ries are dealers, my guess is they have been vetted.
 
There are 6 dealers listed on their website for the USA. I emailed MVP about buying just the right rear trim. They responded with a quote for the part and shipping to Florida. . Here's the copy of their reply. The BMW P/N is 51121810546. Their price for the trim is US $270. Their price and shipping are reasonable, but the tariff and the extra PayPal charge for sending money to a foreign country will prevent me from replacing my trim piece. USA dealers will probably incur the same costs, which will be added to their selling prices for any MVP items.

Dear Customer,

Thanks for your inquiry! We are shipping from Taiwan.

The part (BMSSA-31125) is currently in stock.


Please find the Paypal link below for order confirmation and payment.
The total payment amount includes all the items and the shipping fee (US$ 80).
Because the items BMSSA-31125 have a large volume, we have already covered more than half of the shipping cost. We appreciate your understanding regarding this.

Attached is the payment link to have a look.

Once the payment is received, we'll arrange the Fedex/UPS shipment to you in 10-14 days.

And quick reminder, this payment does not include any customs duties or import taxes.
If any customs fees are incurred upon the package's arrival in your country, the local customs office or the delivery service provider will contact you to arrange payment.
Additionally, please be note that due to recent changes in U.S. import policy, starting August 29, 2025, orders valued under US $800 may no longer be exempt from import taxes. Based on our experience, the U.S. import tax is currently about 20-50% of the invoice amount.

In this case, would you like us to declare the full purchase amount on the invoice, or would you prefer we mark a lower value(US $95) to reduce your import taxes?
Please let us know your preference as soon as possible so we can proceed accordingly.



Once you complete the payment, please provide your delivery details including name, address, and phone number.



If you have any questions, please feel free to ask~

BEST REGARDS,
MVP

I'd go for the lower invoice price. Seems that below $100 they don't charge anything
 
I just ordered from them and it should be arriving this week. For anyone ordering, get them to ship fedex instead of UPS, may avoid a tariff. I will post something next week on the quality/fit, but the 2002 people seem to like their products.
