Finally wrapped the wood trim in my M5 with Di-NOC carbon fiber wrap. I was so sick of the wood. I took every piece out (still need to do the doors), removed all the vents and plastic inserts, used a heat gun and exacto blade and got it perfect. The car looks SOOO much better -- even my wife said so. It's like a whole new car. Next up, Alcantara wrapped steering wheel.

4 years later and I still love my M5 more than the first day I got it.

Pix to come...maybe...

Where are you getting the steering wheel wrapped? I found one place that's cheap, but I'm afraid to trust them with my steering wheel - I seriously doubt they'll give a shit if they cause any errors etc. Plus, I really wanna retain the heated SW option.
