I also have beige interior and i can honestly say the barrage of beige when you open the door is unbearable after a while. Im thinking of getting cf or black trim and some black accents like speaker covers, window switches etc.

I'd do black brushed aluminum or gloss black. Or maybe even suede. I used to be a big fan of CF vinyl but grew out of it.

Its crazy... anything is better than that wood trim. Just take your trim to a body shop and have them paint it Sapphire Black with extra coats of clearcoat. Boom.

My parents say they don't like it because it looks like a pimp's car
I've had mine two weeks now and hasn't gotten dirty, but I guess time will tell. I hit it with Scotchgard for Suede and Nubuck before reinstalling all the panels, so hopefully that'll do the trick.

I also had beige interior with dark wood trim and tried few combinations. First I wrapped in brushed aluminum vinyl
Then wrapped in 3M 1080 gloss black I wasnt satisfied, not enough gloss so I painted them in gloss black That was much better solution but again, I wanted something special Few days ago I painted them in black sapphire metallic and that it, I think thats best color combination. In shadow its very high gloss black, in sun it has metallic effect, stunning |

Can't believe so many people hate the beige and wood, I love mine and it's what I was looking for when I got a BMW. To me it's a classy/luxury look over a modified car look. The beige/black does look good though
