this was the first time i ever wrapped something with fabric but it wasn't THAT hard, just kinda time consuming since you want to be careful and take your time so you don't mess up. in all it took me about a week but that was because i only did around 1 trim piece a day. i would recommend that you try doing it yourself, i was doubting myself but in the end i think i did a really good job and only cost me $45 in all to do it myself compared to $300 that vendors on here are charging to do it.

Where did you buy the CF fabric.. was it from a vendor on the forum.. I think I saw one.. and how hard is it to remove after?

i picked mine up from Euro-Dyne which you can still buy from them even though they're not on the forum anymore just give them a call but PYSpeed is also selling the fabric here. it's easy to remove just peel away the fabric then rub the residual with alcohol.

Awesome BSM135i!!!! That is the color I was looking for...I think the Charcoal might be a bit to shiny for my tastes...and I have Terra so that helps even more. Good job. Now to find these DIY's.

Thanks! I think the black cf fabric with terra leather gives it a sporty and SUPER sexy look. I was on the same boat as you with the charcoal fabric and when amsfoto posted pics of the black fabric in his 1 I was sold. I forgot to post what I used to apply the fabric but it was 3M Super 77, like what everyone else seemed to use. Here's a DIY tips thread that I found very helpful, there's also links in there to other DIY's. Good luck man! http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=253665

Your interior looks really nice, I like it a lot. The only thing I would change is put back the regular blue/white bmw roundell.
