Carbon Fiber Interior Bits

I was curious if anyone has purchased items similar to this. Haven't seen any posting on it but was curious about the actual look/quality/fit.

From the photos, it looks like the center console is off a bit but might give the car a more premium look vs the lighter CF design there is now.

If budget isn't an issue I would buy the M Performance carbon fibre interior then coat it with more resin to achieve the gloss. I imagine a shop could do this for you. That way you get the quality and the gloss.

Any dealer sites listing M2 stock interior carbon fiber parts? I'd like to look into getting some of those trim pieces. Im not fond of the soft alcantara pieces.

I checked with my dealer and they can order them from Germany with a 4-5 week ETA. The two dashboard pieces are not cheap...

I can only imagine. I guess be patient and wait till they're readily available and probably see some better prices down the road. thanks.

Yep.

Also, if any of the M2 crowd buy the alcantara interior pieces they may want to offload the dashboard carbon bits.

It's a lease so I'm not THAT committed to the car. Considering the OEM mirror cap prices vs RW etc, I might take my chances with China, haha.

Thanks though

The m performance ones are really gorgeous, and the matte finish is actually really nice to the touch, very understated. Don't waste your money on chinese stick-on crap

Anyone have an opinion on the M-Performance Carbon stick showy lever? I'm debating on getting it for my 230 that's on order
