BMW Performance Handbrake Grip with Boot

muguruan · 05-10-2010, 02:14 PM

Does anyone know if it is possible to separate the BMW Performance Handbrake Grip from the Alcantara Boot so that I can use it with the perforated M-Sport grip?

Thank you

I am pretty sure you can. Worst case scenario you have to use the performance grip

Should be able to. The stock grip is attched to the stock boot with a zip tie. I put the perforated grip on my non-M sport 128 with the stock boot.

I don't know for a fact that construction is the same for the BMW Performance piece, but it seems like it would be. Just remember you're going to need a new zip first.
