Were there any e28 dashboards of colors other than black, and what appears to be grey in some of the posted images? The one in the first post looks like it's brown and matches the seats, but all the others appear to be either black or grey.

Wow. I really love that interior, I have an Alpinewhite E28 myself with Pacific blue cloth interior, and have been toying around with the idea to convert it into this (if I can find it, that is). What held me back was the idea it wouldn't look right in a white car....guess I was wrong!

Haha, I stared a good 5 minutes at this picture because of the angle your steering wheel center spoke is at; for some reason I thought it was part of your gear shifter which would have a huge angle to it.

What seats are those?

I hate this thread! I want this thread to start a new page... Every few months when this pops back up, I always take a look and my earlier post on this page is always in my face showing me what my interior used to be.. Now it is such crap compared to that, it just makes me feel sour! :cry:

Wow, I really like how the Natur blends so well with the pearlbeige interior.. That Natur shift boot really blends the colors together.. It actually looks almost like a factory color combination instead of just a seat swap..

Well, first off, that's Llama. Secondly - that's how it looks from the factory. There's no Llama carpet, dash or door panels. There is a Llama shift boot - as you see in la picturas. The M5 has the same carpet your car has as well - with Natur seats.
