Exclamation Z4M Roadster interior

I have an non-M Z4 roadster, but I like the dash and center console leather, carbon fiber look that comes in the M's. Can I buy these as aftermarket pieces to replace my brushed aluminum pieces? Thanks!

I dont think anyone makes them aftermarket, you can get them through BMW but it'll be $$$$$$$

They weren't standard in M's either...just an option. I have the aluminum trim in mine and think it looks great. The option your looking for is called 'Carbon Leather'. You can get it through BMW Accessories. The prices are $910 for the dash trim, and $755 for the console trim.

I think carbon leather looks like a cheap material. its not leather, and its not carbon fiber. its rice

Romen's interior cost him around a grand if I recall correctly. Though IMO all red might be a bit much, what about something like this.

I have the brushed aluminum. It looks good but I like the leather better. We can do some dealing if you are interested.

You can use Vinyl to wrap your interior and get the look you want. I did that on mine (Wood -> Carbon Fibre) for less than $30

well, leather has grain and is too thick (1mm at least) to be woven like that. Just look at the closeup pic, there is no leather texture , its vinyl

It is certainly not vinyl, you can tell that much by looking at it in person and feeling it. It feels fairly close to leather.
