Ideas for modding Boston Gray Leather interior

I just picked up a 135i white with boston gray leather. It was a fantastic deal on the car as it was an 08. It came with boston gray leather and its just too much gray. I had them add black mats but there is still too much gray.

Is there a way I can add more black or another color to the car? Like, replacement door panels or middle console replacement?

Any help appreciated. I think if the door panels were replaced with black leather and the middle console replaced also that the color contrast would look fantastic and be enough to satisfy me. Thanks.

I have a sunroof. The interior is all gray. Id like to accent the interior by adding my black. Does BMW sell door inserts, or do interior mods? Or should I look at Ebay or trading with someone else?

im guessing you dont want my black leatherette, haha. anyway, try getting the gloss black interior trim for the car, black shift and brake boots to start. It's something I don't get about the grey, BMW offers a beige/tan option with black accent in savanna vs the regular taupe, and offer saddle, terra and coral with black as the accent color but they don't do the same for grey, kinda weird but that's BMW for you

hi Add1ct, thanks for the info. Not sure about trading with others as I have to return my lease in 3 years. I'd rather just buy some modifications.

Is there a site that sales interior modifications?
