Right i've decided to throw caution to the wind and have the Msport retrimmed from head to toe in cream leather ( Thought about white, but would just be impposible to keep clean) That's seat's, cards, hood cover, glove box, under steering cover, pillars, visors, hardtop, steering wheel, blah, blah, blah. My trimmer wants to know how i want it, but i dont really have a clue. Can anyone think of anything that would make it different please cause i dont want it to be a clone of the Rieger interior

Cheers

B :wink:

////// sarcastic to**er mode on////////



Why don't you leave the hoves and ears on????? and maybe a tail attached to the hood cover?
That would be different.

////// Unfunny joke mode off///////////


No seriously be that's awesome, I love cream leather it'll make a nice contrast, not having the dash covered as well winkeye you know you want to!!!
I can't thin of any way of making it special but them I'm not very imaginitive.

Q i'm sure you can do anything given the time and a lot of effort. Neither of which i have :wink:

Widge, not haveing the dash trimmed is not even an option. No car can consider itself pimp with Vinyl dash :eek:

I was thinking as i'm having black piping, maybe black double stiching as well :?

Right here is a couple ideas for you mate, not sure if it is what you are looking for but you could personalise your interior with either, your name, bodykit, or the type of E30 you have like the pictures below,

M3/Rieger/Booty etc on the hood cover
ImageImage

Logos on the Seats:

The normal Seat thing:

It would be good to try a different stitch like you said in a different colour, or even a different design as most seats are either across or down stitched, but i dont think diagonal would be an option :D this is the best i can offer you mate! :cool:

We're already gonna modify the seats and we have some ideas about the design..we have just done a seriously hot piping design on another beemer but he wasnt keen to go as far as we wanted..
However..I am pretty sure that Booty'll be prepared to go as far as we want..lol
I am just posting some more pics of it to Ben and I know hes gonna love them..
The wheel we have just completed is something very special..

Cream leather outer sections with purple velour centres?? in keeping with your pimp status! lol


Tbh i think you hit the nail on the head with black piping and black stitching. maybe an embossed bmw logo on the seat back? very subtle but one of those fine details.

Fcuk me. Looks like you've been busy Ffi :D

I quiet like the pics of what Bajandaan has posted with the logo on the hood cover and seats, but it will have to be a Motorsport logo winkeye

The piping Vin has done for that other Beemer and the steering wheel are true pimp and wasted on that chap :D

Whatever Vin does i'm sure it will be bootyliciouse cause he has the talent and you have the ideas, now go bake me some cake for when i come round please cause i ain't putting up with other customers getting special treatment and not me any longer :wales: :moon:

Now excuse me. I got some monet you earn :wink:
