i have a monaco blue with beige interior. the car would look so mean with black interior or even that dark brown leather. has anyone done this? i'm sure it would be an intense job but definitely a fun day of work to swap with someone.

Interesting how we always want what we don't have... I have a black interior, and kinda wish I'd have a beige or dark brown one

If there's someone in Texas that has a natural brown interior and doesn't like it, I'd definitely be up for swapping a beige interior. Was trying to find a carbon black on brown 550i when I was shopping for it, but had to settle for beige.

I did a full interior reupholstering when I changed my standard front seats to sport seats.

did you accomplish a DIY with pics? I am looking into purchasing some sport seats for my non sport 08 535i from a BMW salvage yard in my area. I have tons of questions.
