Love it. It really gives the interior a much sportier feel. I was concerned that it would make a black interior too cave-like, and it doesn't do so at all. Definitely would order it again.

What are your opinions of the anthracite headliner for my new 08 model year 550 sport? Does it make the cabin seem smaller?
Is this available by special order in the US with the car?

:thumbsdown: Depressing is my take. E60 interior is cold enough.

In the UK, the black headliner is free when you get a Sport model, but you have to pay for it if you get the non-sport model.

i guess it's also the case in US since i was not charged for it but ordered sport package.
Or was I overcharged?

It is extra in the US on a 550 Sport. You got lucky. Congratulations.

You got me thinking and had to go check
In my case, it was listed on the invoice. Is it listed on your invoices?

I also really like the Anthracite Headliner and was used to a lighter gray interior prior. Its not too dark IMO and goes great with the Natural Brown interior.

And I love mine. Great look, not dark or cave-like at all. I wish they would dump those awful looking airbag warning stickers on the back of the visors (or let the user remove them easily). They spoil the integrated black look. :thumbsdown:

I really liked the Anthracite Headliner on my 550 Sport. It is just plain cool looking.
I am going to special order some Euro spec visors without the US Lawyer Stickers. I dislike those stupid stickers.
