Did the installer custom fabricate the covers or did you buy covers that were already cut for your seats?

Nappa is awesome. I love how soft nappa is. I like alcantara, but it is more difficult to maintain. Both look good.

The Nappa seats look great! Anyone here know if its possible to order Alcantara trim seats in the US?

I see the stock F10 M-sport photos, but haven't seen any other than this thread.

Why the hell can't we get those M seats on our U.S M Sport Packages? I love them both. The alcantara is cool though obviously resembles cloth a bit too much. Also I'm sure maintenance would be a b*tch.

That's very impressive workmanship. I like it before and after. Before I feel is more individual as most 5 series are leather, but the look of the leather covers is also nice.

Its an option for Europe. Alcantara on the seat edges etc, with cloth inserts in the middle/hard wearing areas. For those that prefer cloth to freezing cold leather in a cold euro morning
