I would like to order my car with the Anthracite Headliner but my dealer does not think that it exists. Can anyone give me the order code for the Anthracite Headliner?

Does the car look to dark inside with the Anthracite Headliner?

Thanks!

Option code 775.

In my opinion it can make it look dark and feel "closed in" but this can be good. A matter of preference, I might go for it on the next car.

If you are ordering your car, it is definately available.

The anthracite headliner can help to complete the look of several interior colors. I ordered my Monaco Blue with Auburn Interior with it and it looks great! I'm not sure how it would look with a black interior, it might make it darker, but it probably would look nice as well. If you are going with light grey, stay with the standard headliner.

Based upon my car, it can't hurt either an auburn or black, so good luck with your decision.

I have it on my current 540-6spd with black leather and have ordered it on my replacement 550-6spd with black leather. With the black leather, the antracite headliner makes the interior look more uniform and well integrated (IMO).

MY car was likened to a giant liquorice allsort by someone when they got in it once.


Black top. Yellow Seats. Black mats.

I had it on my 330i and loved it so I got it on my e60 too. Kind of pricey at $500 but it looks good. I don't think it makes the interior too dark. I heard it is supposed to also cut down on the glare inside the car but I don't know that for a fact. I only wish it also included the Anthracite covered steering wheel too as part of the package!
