Who's Got Skillz to help me swap interiors

jhershorin · 12-05-2009, 10:28 PM

Wow. Very lucky. I have a grey interior with the sport seats and I just want black interior. Id even get rid of my sport seats just to get a fully black interior.

Coming along nicely. Can't wait to see the end result!

Great choice! Coral Red is definitely the best interior color along with saddle.

dave96dcm · 01-04-2010, 11:07 AM

Looks sweet so far.

BMWjames · 01-04-2010, 03:39 PM

oldkingdom · 01-18-2010, 11:09 PM

Damn... I'm still trying to find someone to swap with me. And I've got a BMW tech lined up waiting to do the work with me. Great job finding someone and great job on the work... it's coming along great!

MassBimmer · 01-19-2010, 08:58 AM

Coming along really nicely...can't wait to see the finished product! BTW, what did the other guy do while you had his entire interior but still had your black seats?!

Thanks. We didn't take the entire interior all at once. We pretty much tried to work on each section at a time. we first started with the front seats, i removed mine and then removed his and then swap. This way it would be easy to remember where all the screws were and not misplace things.

TL · 01-25-2010, 02:04 PM

Finally after a year and couple of months it's completed

......thanks to Rob (Cyphr), Dave (Arustik1), everyone else who commented on this thread/project of mine and last without this person this project would have never taken place, i like to thank Kevin (lyjw88)

now the final pics below

oldkingdom · 01-25-2010, 02:07 PM

Awesome!!! I still want to know how you found your donor. I'm still looking.

Looks awesome man! Great job!

ibeclueless · 01-25-2010, 02:13 PM

wow, looks really good Tim!

Thanks, the funny thing about finding my interior was I went through 4 heart breaks (couple forum members fell through) before actually getting it. I went to meet Kevin to trade my 189 style wheels for his because he had winter tires on his set and i had summer performance OEM RFT. Then we started talking and I told him i've been looking for red interior and he told me he has AW with coral red seats. My eyes just went

and started to

and then couple weeks later it happen.
