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.
Here are some pics of the new trim set up, i bought two yards of this fabric on ebay, removed the trim and wrapped it in this fabric using 3M spray adhesive, it gave me no problems.
The only thing I haven't done is the two front door handle trims, just don't feel like taking the whole doors apart now, maybe in a few weeks...

What is that on your steering wheel? Leather wrap?

I like everything except for the cheap looking leather-wrap steering wheel. Spend some dough and let a pro do it for ya.
