were to buy fender black molding and how to replace
I hit some metal on the freeway and need to replace the rear fender black arch and the molding that goes under the door to the front arch. Does any one know how much the 2 parts are and how to change them out? No paint or body damage just the 2 black parts, thanks Barry

Dealer has the parts, they're not too costly. Check the forum for venders that sell the arches already painted if you want to color match.
To remove/replace you must remove the plastic wheel wells in the rear to access the fasteners for the arches. The front is pretty easy. Just open the hood and you should see the arch molding fasteners just inside. Be careful the clips will break.
Disclaimer: My experience is on the R53, but it should be good on the R56 as well.

Had to replace a rear arch and got the replacement from
http://www.minicarparts.net/Nxt/sear...DY+%26+CHASSIS
OEM part, had a local body shop replace it, no worries. They did the job for around 30 or 40 bucks if memory serves.
