Interior trim from wood to ????

BoricuaE92 · 06-14-2012, 03:06 PM

Now that the mod bug is in full swing, I want to change my interior trim from wood to something else.

I have a Space Grey E92 with Coral Red/Dakota Black interiors...

What should I wrap the interior with? Carbon Fiber? Matte/gloss black? Aluminum?

Also, who is a good supplier of vinyl wrap?

Aluminum with aluminum petals

I think brushed metal would be work well because the gun metal finish would match the exterior and the dark shade would sit well with the red interior :]

Thanks for the suggestions, guys and GAL ;-)... Does this mean I have to go buy the brush metal trim from BMW or is there a brush metal look vinyl wrap available?

Check out metrorestyling.com to see your vinyl options.

Brushed aluminum or gloss black. Try gloss vinyl to see if you like it. If you dont, tear it off and you are only out like 20 bucks.

gloss black, black alcantara, or carbon.. not a fan of aluminum really

Did mine in brushed black aluminum, looks great imo. Wanted not-silver (grey interior) and not-carbon fiber (everyone's grndmother has it now-a-days).

That is mine, just took this pic a few hours ago after installing my aluminum pedals. It is black matte carbon fiber.

I did a Matte Black centre console cause I didn't want too much Carbon Fiber and all the M cars now have the matte black centre with CF trim. 3m scotch print I think was the matte black I used
