CF Interior Pieces...any yet? - M3 Forum 2010 2009 BMW M3 2008 BMW M3 BMW E90 M3 E92

^^^ I doubt I will be happy with any trim pieces available when I get mine, and I'd like to change to CF...anything available?

Bemve · 03-01-2008, 10:45 PM

I think Ericson makes a kit

KonigsTiger · 03-03-2008, 03:32 PM

Have got to look into it!! CF would look very nice in the interior. The CF leather look alike trim is not bad, but the center looks rather bland with only platic on it!!

SMSgt B · 03-03-2008, 03:41 PM

What about from BMW?

Wow!!! I was told by my local BMW shop (saw the same picture) that what they meant by "carbon trim" is what I have in my car today. That is, carbon look alike leather etc...!! If you look at the price, that is probably correct unless BMW is selling the least expenssive CF interior pieces I´ve come across. I hope I am ALL WRONG though! I will call again and see if that is the case. Thanks!!!

Yes, there's a real CF trim available as a dealer installed option. It's also part of the Performance parts:

Damn, that looks hawt! What kind of steering wheel is that?

KonigsTiger · 03-03-2008, 04:51 PM

Will look it up! Though the picture above shows a 335 and not a M3. They did have CF for the 335, problem is it has no opening for the Power, EDC & traction control!! I´ve already written the BMW shop to see if I can get them.

Do those shift lights work with MT?

Yes, they do! 5 LEDs each left and right to the display.

I was searching and found that this steering wheel would be part of the performance package for the 1-series (the pic you displayed is in the 135i). Anyone know when they will make an "M" version of this steering wheel? (since the one in the pic doesn't have the M-drive button)

The pic is from a 3 series, not the 135i (notice the double hump NAV). The buttons are no problem since the wheel comes without them and you just use the existing ones (it's only the wheel and the cover for the buttons).

KonigsTiger · 03-03-2008, 06:00 PM

Well, I will find out if I can get that here in Mexico as well!! Probably not, but if anyone knows if I can order that from Europe or the USA, I will do so!!!

GewoW · 03-04-2008, 11:58 AM

I just want some carbon trim! Hopefully they can offer me real carbon here at my dealer.

Keep us posted if you are able to get the steering wheel. I definately would like to have my hands on one of those.

KonigsTiger · 03-04-2008, 01:05 PM

Will do!!!! The CF, by the way, is not available in Mexico!!!! I am told only in the USA!!! Go figure, we get the car months ahead of time but the US gets the accessories and not the car!! Wow, what is BMW thinking. I´ll call my brother who lives in the US and see if I can order the pieces.

And by USA I'm sure they mean CAN also...woohoo!
I want the steering wheel too!!

SMSgt B · 03-04-2008, 01:57 PM

I wonder if this steering wheel will work for M3s with M-DCT? I can't remember if the paddles are a part of the steering wheel or mounted separate behind it.
