Swap Interior Trim Kits? - BMW 3-Series Forum (F30 / F32)

Red Lined · 01-03-2012, 07:25 PM

Does anyone know if there will be kits available to change the trim in the car. I usually go for aftermarket staggered wheels anyways so the base 17s don't bother me (though the 18 sport wheels are nice). The only unsettling thing is the cheap silver trim in the base model. Would I (more likely the dealer) be able to swap the trim out for brushed aluminum or wood. Any idea on the pricing of these kits with installation.

Only reason I ask this is because I am currently debating going:

a) base 328 with premium, xenons, and PDC (hence the trim issue)
or
b) sport line with coral leather and power seats (but the dim halogen issue)

Thanks.

No kits yet, but you can buy the individual pieces

The front dash for instance only has 2 trim pieces to change
