It seems absurd, but I can't find any aftermarket parking brake handles, except for the BMW one with the alcantara boot attached to it and a couple of absurdly priced brushed aluminum ones on ECS Tuning with some Awful 3D logo on it.

Basically- I'm about to do the Coby Alcantara Wheel, DCT boot, and parking brake boot (with white stitching) and I'd like to do an aluminum/sliver-colored or black brushed aluminum parking brake handle. I don't want to order the BMW one because it's important the boot material and stitching match so I'd prefer to go all Coby with that.

Any ideas on aftermarket parking brake handles? I've searched high and low.

Yeah I have the carbon leather on the dash so I can't really do the shiny carbon fiber anywhere.

I figured nobody would have an answer for this. I may pull it off and have something specially made.

You can purchase the bmwp handle without the boot.

That would be ideal. I've not been able to find that despite specifically looking for it. Would you happen to know where I might find that?

Found this but looks like it's not available anymore. (Part number 34409416256)

I would just pair up the Alcantara Coby Wheel e brake boot with a matching handle. Yes he does wrap the handle itself also. Had it on my last e90 m3.

I'm not a big fan of the wrapped and threaded handle. I saw he had that. I think it looks a bit weird.

Personally i think it looks good as it flows with the boot. But to each their own i suppose.
