Aluminum Rhombicle Anthracite Trim
Featured on BIMMERPOST.com I've got IOMG over full Tartufo at status 111, and I like the idea of the alumnum contrasting with the darker leather but haven't seen it outside of the build visualized on the website. Any pics or thoughts are appreciated.

But the Carbon wheel insert and shift paddles are so good. But I guess that’s subjective to each person.

I'll agree that the carbon steering wheel trim is striking. Though mine is a manual so I am not missing out on carbon paddles.

The fact that you want to swap it out might tell me all I need to know.

I like it ! Plus, don't have to worry about fine scratches in it, like CF

Aluminum Rhombicle Anthracite Trim
That's some solid investigative work. Thanks.
I think it looks good. In my opinion, a nice contrast to the darker leather and the black on the dash. At the very least it will be a more unique combo. Definitely post pics when yours arrives.

I had matte carbon fiber trim on my e93 and glossy CF trim on the F80. It's a cool look for sure, but like I said before without the CF buckets or exterior pack, I think this will be a nice option. |

As promised. Initial reaction is good, I like it. It brightens up a dark cabin. Is it exotic and polished like CF? No. I had matte CF on my e93, this feels more like that than the shiny CF. Happy to save $1k, but would probably prefer the CF all things considered… what do you think??

And the trim around the steering wheel is a higher quality finish and material than in the 430i we traded, at least it appears to be. |

Maybe it's just me….
The CF dash looks a *little* cheesy *to me*

I wanted to save the $950 but when I looked at online pics and the tiny sample at the dealer, it just didn't seem premium enough. Unfortunately I was unable to see a car with it equipped, so it might look and feel better in person.
I don't love the idea of internal decorative carbon fiber, but I do think it looks cool. I'm torn.

Day 2 with this trim, and I like it more than yesterday (but not as much as tomorrow)
