My M Performance Armrest Has Arrived

Turboextreme · 05-23-2016, 12:33 PM

After almost 3 months wait my M Performance Armrest has turned up at last and it completes my list of interior M Performance parts, just got to fit it now:

On another note though there is no M Performance logo on the carbon like I have seen in some pictures not that I am bothered.

Will add some pics once it is fitted

Where is the alcantara shift boot?!

Looking great! And I agree! Just missing the alcantara shift boot and knob!

Man I want this part so bad.
Apparently dealers in Cali can't order or even get this part

It took me almost 3 months to get it and I ordered it from a dealership in Germany.

On a different note in regards to a couple of the above posts you can't get a M Performance gaiter in alcantara or carbon shifter for the manual version as far as I am aware as yet

Looks great! I should be receiving my armrest and side brake today! How was the install? Did you do yourself? Any tips?

IND makes a M Performance shift knob with matching alcantara boot and stitching. They basically take the carbon MP shift knob from the F30 and add on the boot. It goes for about $330 US. I was/am tempted to order one, but I've read and heard the knob itself is not as weighted as the OEM one, and also does not light up - something that is particular to me as an ///M-exclusive feature.
