Interior pain peeling off - BMW 3-Series (E90 E92) Forum

turtle408 · 12-08-2010, 03:43 PM

Hi all,

I have 2006 325i sedan which has peeling interior beige paint.
Any options to get it right? like paint? wax etc ?

Thx,
Chucks

How far out of warranty are you? That's a known issue for some early model E9x vehicles. Basically the back of the seat clip, female portion, rubs against the console wearing away the paint. Later models have a peice of material atttached to the back of the seat belt clip. You can get spray interior paint to cover that, remove the console etc.. DIY should be in that section for console removal but I'd see if they would good will fix that first based on your warranty poistion and if you are the original owner.

My 335i had the exact same issue. The dealer replaced mine under warranty without any fuss. I don't know of anything you could do to fix (other than replaced) it that would match the rest of the interior.

Warranty been expired since some time. Is their a paint or wax available ?

Wtf! Not even my RSX-S had this issue which I had for 7 yrs. I guess I/we expect too much from BMW (German cars)

I beleive there is a rubber coating, not paint. So spray would probably make it look really bad.

I have this in various places of my car, with the driver's door handle pull being the most annoying to me. Especially because the whole door needs to be replaced....not just the door pull. Find a totaled E90 with the same interior. Swap it out.

hi dear friends. I have a BMW e90 325i, with the same problem, And I repair it myself.
With a product on Ebay, ( http://www.ebay.com/itm/33-33-100ml-...#ht_692wt_1187) Select the color on Drop Down List on page)

It's a paint and you can doi t your self gently with a Brush.

I REPAIR IT COMPLETY, just a few paint WITHOUT remove any parts from the console, just carefully.

the product is LITTLE bottle of DAKOTA BEIGE, ( oem color from BMW) about 18 dollars. So you have to use it carefully, and the result is just amazing, no one can note that the interior is repainted.

I'm from Costa Rica, so please excuse my poor English, hope to help to community.

Best Regards.

I have the same problem but with a grey interior, did the paint work?

Thought I would bring this back up...Has anyone used this paint on their interiors? I would really like to see some pics

GiorgioIr · 01-29-2013, 05:17 PM

Guys, If your interior is black, use plastidip. IDK if they do a beige color..

I too am starting to see this in my 2006 330Xi (Beige interior.)
