Talking Custom interior features

Fellow Forum members

I started this thread because I´m interested in seeing what kind of custom interior modifications my fellow Forum members have done to their F10/F11

From in-between the rear seat champagne coolers, Rear entertainment to hidden radar install or just about anything that is custom inside the car ( since there are so many threads on things done to the exterior ) I was curious as to what fellow members customize on the inside so please share some so we can see.

first thing i did for the interior was my steering wheel! biggest improvement by far! oh wait, i did the phone holder kit that you can see just to the right side of the wheel next to the display. next will be maybe wrapping my trim in carbon fiber vinyl? not a whole lot of things you can do to the interior really...keeping a real clean look and i dont mean my dirty carpets lol! i've browsed everything on Ebay as far as F10 interior accessories and found really nothing i wanted

Is that the cinnamon interior color? I was hoping to find a CPO's white one with that interior but no luck on an MSport.

funny part is when i was looking for a jet black 5 series i was really set on the cinnamon interior and i was able to get it so yes...this is the cinnamon interior! so when i had the steering wheel done i knew i had to incorporate the cinnamon stitching and stripe to compliment with the rest of the interior.

Did you do a heated steering wheel? Price range? Or do they all have the wiring and you just need a switch?

Carbon trim came out really nice

I really regret not getting the ceramic controls when I ordered the car so you didn´t do the AC controls? does the whole thing need to be replaced if you would?

Nice are those OEM pedals or the Ebay set? I have been trying to decide what to get.... since I already have a factory M dead pedal but it doesn´t match the new M performance pedals so I was thinking of getting a set and replacing the existing M dead pedal.

Meteorite grey CF wrap interior trim. Perfect match to car space grey paint. Interior was blk on blk on blk before and the grey CF trim really makes the interior details pop. Also painted the ugly ass EZPASS blk so its practically invisible from the outside and hid behind the mirror when inside.

That´s what I thought, but mine already came from the factory with an M dead pedal so I have to remove that one first.
