E90 M3 Carbon Fiber Interior Trim Options Anywhere?

Duck360198 · 03-03-2018, 11:12 AM

Hey! New to the E90 M3 market. The first thing I wanted to do was swap out the nasty leather trim. Can't stand it and need a bit more pop. I want a glossy carbon fiber. In doing some searching I'm seeing that the OEM trim is now discontinued. And it appears people like Autotecknic and IND only offer trim for the E92 only.

So do I have any other options here? I'm kind of bummed!

For reference it's a 2011 with 6MT and CIC.

any help would be awesome! Thanks!

The nasty leather trim that you are talking about is desirable to most and should be easy to sell! It is an E9X M3 only option.

I love the carbon leather trim. Only thing I'd replace it with is dry carbon trim.

Once you figure out what trim you want to go with, I’ll buy your E90 carbon leather trim off you. Let me know if/when you’re ready to sell the complete set.

Thanks and hope you find what you’re looking for.

Looks like we sold your carbon leather trim duck.

Quick google search yielded this. Not 100% sure about fitment.

I thought you couldn't wrap the leather trim. I thought because of the soft nature of the leather the vinyl wouldn't work. No?

Yeah I know it's an M3 only option. But the 100% black interior is just too much and too mundane for me. I'd feel different if it was fox red interior. The trim would be fine.

Thanks guys! I'll be keeping the trim when the car goes back to stock in the future.

I had asked about this one awhile ago. They told me it's not for the M3 as they don't have a 6MT option and no center console.

Thanks again guys. Still looking for solutions.

SeattleLSB · 03-05-2018, 08:35 AM

Check with IND they have the center console.

furry · 03-05-2018, 11:15 AM

Lots of options on ebay these days, I dont have reason to doubt quality since it seems straightforward to mold carbon over oem trim pieces to match fit.

This one looks interesting and looks to be replacement not overlay:

I have the OEM carbon fiber trim and the Autotechnik center console. The surface finish of the OEM pieces are much nicer feeling. They are smooth, whereas the Autotechnik piece has the texture of the fiber slightly. The Autotechnik piece definitely doesn't look as high quality.

Interesting on the Autotecknic console. I had heard a lot of praise on it. Visually it sounds like it works though. You looking to sell your trim?

marksae · 11-21-2018, 01:19 AM

Duck360198, if you're still looking, I'm selling the OEM CF trim off my E90. I'm also selling the Autotecknic CF center console.
