Funny you ask; I just saw this two days ago:

Looks pretty good, but doesn't match well enough to be worth the effort, IMO. Plus I don't really like the idea of faking carbon fiber, just on principle.

I do think BMW should have made both covers CF, but God knows how much the thing would cost then.
