Welcome and congrats on your E90, is that real BMW Performance interior trims?

Did you put the wheel on yourself? Just wondering because you don't have sport seats but you have a sport steering wheel .

Thought the sport steering wheel had the metal on it

Since my car is still under warranty, I could only do cosmetic upgrade. Things I've done:
Install beyerns mesh 5 gloss black
Install mtech steering wheel
Wrap interior in cf vinyl
COrner amber delete
White angel eyes
Gloss black kidney grille
Painted lowere mesh grille gloss black
Get rid of white inner tail lights
Full led interior lights

WHat I would like done in future:

Get sport seats
M3 Front bumper
Maybe coil over

Trying to keep it as clean n simple as possible

Clean car!

That is the M Sport steering wheel. The steering wheel that came with the sport package does not have the leather and it does have the aluminum trim.

I didn't see the perforated leather, my mistake, I was on my phone amd couldnt see. Actually 06 didn't come with the aluminum trim even with sport package, 06.5 came with the thumbrest though (pre 06.5 didn't come with the thumbrest for sport pkg) just fyi. I see he has a 328 so none of that applies to him.

Sometimes identifying the 138 different steering wheels on these cars requires a college degree. Thanks for the info!

And good looking car, OP.

airhitman · 09-26-2013, 11:49 AM

Got myself some Oem Blacklines, 189 bmw rims, and Mtech AE V4 (Ebay AE gave me door ajar errors lol).
Still waiting for some 12mm spacers and for someone to sell me a AW M3 front bumper

Mardio · 09-26-2013, 03:30 PM
