Hi Charles,
If those pictures are your actual car, then they look quite usable. They are quite easy to remove once the whole trim piece has been removed - drill out the rivets locating them behind the trim and very carefully lever them off. I did this on mine and they cleaned up like new and where pretty easy to re-fit.
Cheers.

Hi,
They are exactly the same profile as the BD19029/1 bonnet trim, which is available from SNG, for example. You just have to bend them to shape.
Bonet trim: BD19029/1 - 53"
The so called Finisher Bead comes in 3 pieces in 3 lengths on the later S1 cars:
BD24414 - 51" - above the windows.
BD20191/2* - 21" - in the rear.
BD23508/9* - 4.5" - below the rear side window.
This means that 3x BD19029/1 would do for a rear window beading for the S1 FHC.
