Wrapping

I want to get some parts wrapped in alcantara. mayb the roof liner, steering wheel and etc. anyone know any where in MA that i can get this done? or is anyone interested so we can go up and get it done together? haha. i love alcantara but have never been able to have it in my car stock, as most of them are only available in ferrari's and lambo's. haha. so yea. haha.

A couple places that came to mind:

Luxury Details in Framingham, MA
Sound in Motion and the upholsterer next to it in Allston, MA
A1 Upholstery in Waltham, MA

I had my E90 headliner wrapped in Alcantara at LD and they did a pretty good job on it.

Everything fits nicely after we put the headliner back in. I have some pictures in this for sale thread: http://www.e90post.com/forums/showpo...96&postcount=1. You be the judge and tell me how you like it. Also, it's still sitting at LD so feel free to ask Matt to show it to you.

I'm sure they do steering wheel as well. I actually have a black E92 headliner at LD, so if you want to do a core exchange and have Matt wrap mine up first, you can talk to him about it. That way you won't have any down time

Wants to keep the sporty look of the cloth headliner instead of the ultra-luxe look. I had the Alcantara headliner in my E55 AMG and it was nice.
