Diggin' the leopard print in the third pic ... new covers for your seats?

I kid, I kid ... Nice job on the upholstery work. Really nice stitching and clean install.

AnooooOH · 08-15-2011, 11:12 AM

gotta love suede

the plastic thing around the m3 gauge is getting some alcantara atm.
of course with silver stiching.

the leopard is the scarf of my gf

adobeee · 08-15-2011, 06:32 PM

nice mats dude. where did you get them?

escobar929 · 08-16-2011, 08:30 AM

love everything especially the steering wheel, the floor mats are not my cup of tea but they work well w/ the theme

1speedbike · 08-16-2011, 10:50 AM

Sweet! You know it's a real race car when you have the stripe on the steering wheel

Looks great

Definitely. After all it was the Finnish race car driver, Rauno Aaltonen, who used it first

Looks great

haha thanks

I like the stripe of the performance steering wheel but it dont like the color because it wouldnt work well with the rest.
so I decided to create my own performance wheel.

and the car feels noticeably faster now

Wow nice interior, nice car! I really like the //M gauge too!

One question about that //M gauge though....compared to stock gauges (here in north america) the redline starts at 7,000RPM and in the owners manual it says the fuel will stop being delivered to the engine if we rev into that zone in order to protect the engine. But on your //M gauge the redline starts at 8,000RPM. Can you now actually rev into that 7-8k zone without shutting off the fuel supply?

Thanks! And nice work!!

KeyboardRacer · 08-17-2011, 11:25 AM

wow that's really beautiful. you'd think that all came stock or something

I dunno

The 130i revs a littler higher than the 128i I think.

That`s what I was trying to reach. I love the idea of building a special edition or something like that.

Bought some splitters for the front yesterday, hope they will arrive soon.

They are cf but I`m thinking of painting them to make the front look more agressive because you don`t really recognize them when they are cf.

Killswitch · 08-18-2011, 02:13 PM

really impressive, wish i could do do something like that with my interior.

AnooooOH · 08-19-2011, 07:14 AM

you can, just do it!!
