Does anyone have a black headliner?

AW330i · 12-06-2005, 04:26 PM

I am thinking about doing something custom with my headliner which is currently grey and it involves going to black but i was wondering if bmw offers a blackheadliner and on what interiors is it available? Also does anyone know how to change the mirrors out in the fold down vanity mirror/ sun shade things.

I am going to do it in black suede... but i am trying to figure out just how hard it is going to be to switch all of the grey pieces i.e. light consoles, mirror covers, oh shit handles, etc... I need to go and spend some time in my car looking at all of the grey pieces of plastic that need to be changed, and then I need to get the part numbers for the pieces in black. Once I get that done, I will order the pieces and drop my car off I was told it will take about 2 1/2 days to do by the shop that I am going to have do it. If I do get this done there will definatley be pics up as soon as it is done...

I've got the black headlining in my 325i M-sport. I'm actually a bit surprised by it -- it's not the usual plastic or felt, it's actually fabric which feels like it's been installed *over* the standard interior. I can see it getting snagged and running, especially with kids in the car. It also seems to attract fluff and hair more than the norm.

The other thing about it is that I thought it would make the car feel a bit claustrophobic, but I haven't noticed it at all. Maybe it's the sunroof providing extra light..

Sporty is not exactly what I am going for on this particular mod, it will be one of a very few things that I want to do to add some luxury and finish to my car. Does anyone know if you can order the m-sport parts here in the us?
