hey guys heres the pic of the interior carbon fiber trim like i promised but no explaination lol the only part that was the hardest was the center trim because it has those weird curves next to the steering wheel. i took some pictures to show you guys what it looks like. also heres a couple of links for DIY on wrapping the car its quite easy you just have to work the bubbles out after you apply the fabric but thats easy becuase the 3m adhesive lets you move it around.:

My Ride: Black 2006 BMW 530i with sport and prem package, staggered 124 wheels, 50% tint, AC Schnitzer aluminum pedals, black interior w/ alum trim set, M style body kit and sound upgrade: Alpine PDX-5, PXE-H660, sub, MBQuart speakers.
great job! I just finished doing the same thing to my car a couple of weeks ago, except mine has black interior, but it does look great now. Still need to take some pics, will try to so so this week.
The only think I haven't done yet are the two front door handles. I broke the two rear ones to remove them (didn't take door apart), and they fit fine even with a couple of broken clips, but i'm hesitant to do the same with the front ones. I might seek some help from one of those ding repair places, they must have more practice on taking the door apart.
How did you do it?
Does your ashtray cover open and close like before, or is it a little stuck? what about the idrive menu button? I have it kind of loose as it won't go all the way down as before, i guess i need to remove some cloth from that part
But it's a great upgrade from that crappy wood trim. It's a much more refreshing and sporty feel when you get in the car and see the carbon fiber all over.
