Steering wheel trim will be available soon.
Side mirror cover, a couple months away I would say.
It would be AutoTecknic's brand.

For the quality and customization options it's worth the premium.

My whole F25 X3 interior was done for around $800, which is cheaper than the official M performance dry carbon and looks waaaaay better

It's better keep all black parts imho, this is not m3/m4, all carbon elements outside will looks strange, it's like SUV) but just my opinion, but inside - yeah, it will looks nice

The main do not to put outside - that the car don't have carbon roof (this is very very very sad)

I had CF mirror caps on my X3 M40i. They looked great.

How to make the car looks super Ugly, i don't even known who want to change this steering wheel instead of stock one.


I like only the black color of the wheels, they should be black in competition model already!

It means u have 0 taste

The look should be complete and finished, so if you have only 1 element in carbon - it looks very very stupid.

Carbon cover is good, when you have carbon leap, diffusor, side skirts, grills etc
