BMW Body Moulding diagram for 320i, 320i xDrive, 328d, 328d xDrive, 335i, & more

A rocker panel molding bracket is a support piece that secures the rocker panel molding (the trim along the lower side of a vehicle) to the body. It ensures the molding stays aligned and firmly attached, protecting the rocker area from debris while also providing a finished appearance. These brackets are typically made of plastic or metal and can wear out or break from impact, corrosion, or repeated stress.

• Loose or detached molding – rocker panel trim rattles, sags, or falls off.
• Noise or vibration – rattling sounds while driving due to insecure molding.
• Visible damage or corrosion – broken, bent, or rusted brackets that no longer hold the molding in place.

About Genuine BMW

The original parts used by BMW to build your car are available as replacement parts under the “Genuine BMW” brand. When ordering a Genuine BMW part you are guaranteed to get the same part that you would pick up from your local dealerships part department. Genuine BMW parts have been built to BMW’s stringent standards and are the same quality of the original parts used to build your Ultimate Driving Machine.

You may not realize this, but the parts that make up your BMW are not necessarily manufactured by BMW. No cause for concern, as BMW designs the part, hires a manufacturer, and ensures its quality to you. In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for BMW for decades. In our industry these manufacturers are called OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and these are often brands you recognize, including Lemforder, ZF, Sachs, Bosch, Valeo, Zimmermann, Siemens VDO, Corteco, and more. Don’t be surprised to open that Genuine BMW parts box and find an OEM branded part inside, simply with the addition of a BMW logo.

Be sure to keep an eye out for OE tags on our product pages to quickly identify parts coming direct from OE manufacturers. That extra bit of insight could save you some serious money while shopping! Refer to our OE Academy for further information regarding the OE/OEM tags throughout the site.
