BMW performance parts

Performance gearknob and handbrake
Something I would never lash £200 at but I got them as freebies!
Gearknob feels good but a bit small reminds me of my old accord type r.

Rudz · 10-07-2013, 02:34 PM

Looks great mate, love the handbrake, think I'll buy one too..

KM79 · 10-07-2013, 02:41 PM

Cheers Rudz, I do like the new look but feel the steering wheel needs done now with either an alcantara trim or Carbon fibre or second hand full suede wheel!
The handbrake and gaitor come together at £85 but the knob and gear gaitor you have to buy seperate.

E91-Gaz · 10-07-2013, 03:08 PM

Have the same in mine, love the gearknob made the gear change feel much more precise.

KM79 · 10-07-2013, 03:09 PM

Yeah definately, the old one feels quite cumbersome in comparison!

Mikex101 · 10-08-2013, 02:06 AM

Looks nice!
Kris, Is the finish on the centre console standard or a wrap??

KM79 · 10-08-2013, 03:10 AM

Cheer mate,it's the standard silver cubed sort of finish.

Mikex101 · 10-08-2013, 03:35 AM

Cheers. Mines flat silver and looking tatty. Trying to think of the best way to tidy it up.

KM79 · 10-08-2013, 05:06 AM

Wrap it in Carbon or black vinyl,did this on my last car and looked good.

Chris H · 10-08-2013, 10:29 AM

Looks really good!

I've fitted those to my e90, plus the alcantara steering wheel trim. Nice easy mods to fit and can be picked up for a fairly acceptable price.

KM79 · 10-08-2013, 02:44 PM

Indeed,is that the one around the steering wheel buttons?I priced that up today at work and it's only £44. Does it look good?

Chris H · 10-08-2013, 03:09 PM

Not a very good photo but you get the idea

KM79 · 10-08-2013, 03:24 PM

Thanks for that mate,may have just made up my mind!
