This is a great value upgrade to complete the car’s carbon interior. The SHFT item has the same carbon weave direction as the OEM BMW carbon interior trims - allowing it to look like a factory option! As this trim is manufactured from pre-preg carbon fiber, the fitment is perfect - backed by a manufacturer's warranty. The finish is also high-gloss for that premium look.

Would help to have some wider angles and better lighting to understand how this looks and matches with the OEM dash trim.

For sure we’ll get some photos for you tomorrow.

Just installed today, here is a pic, lighting is bad but you can see fitment is on point!

Looks a lot darker than the OEM dash CF

Way darker.

Disappointing to not have seen any better images, would be a neat mod if it matches the factory carbon trim but the images posted so far don’t look like it.

R44 Performance · 01-13-2024, 01:33 AM

We’ll have some photos on Monday, most of our team took an extra holiday so we haven’t been as active on here. Apologies.

We’ll post these up Monday 😎

Hypothecator · 01-13-2024, 09:44 AM

I think it matches better than my poor photography suggests! I will try to get a better pic…

Order placed; hope to receive and install before Invasion.

I assume the trim just came out with a pry tool?

You don't pry nothing out you place it over the trim.

Some more photos with an iPhone, natural lighting and no edits,

With this product MHC were focusing on the weave direction rather than shades, but as you see here it is a good medium between the upper trim and lower trim by the gear selector.

Hypothecator · 01-16-2024, 08:44 AM

Correct. Just sticks right on top. I think it looks pretty good- definitely better than that black plastic!

We’re hoping around 5-7 days. We saw them on Friday at the factory coming out the moulds. They’ll go in for paint and polishing next week and we will collect them.

Been extremely popular and there is only 1 mould for each (LHD / RHD) so takes a bit longer 😑
