Interior upgrade options. - The Unofficial BMW M5 Messageboard (m5board.com)

Hi guys...

E34 M5 1990 production with standard black leather/M-cloth interior. (Outside is Calypso Red)

Thinking of re-trimming the seats and door cards. M-cloth very expensive to find so thinking of going to full leather. Would you go for black all round? That seems the logical option but I quite like light coloured seats/door cards with black dash/door plastics/centre console look. Something like light grey or champagne.
Does anyone have such a 2 tone interior? Pics would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

Few weeks ago there was M5 on german Ebay with interior in two colors , black / white . It was looking good because car was painted dark grey but I don't know how it's gonna look on Calypso red ?

I'd go with Champagne full leather. We've got one Calypsorot E34 M5 with extended Champagne-leather interior and it looks absolutely stunning! Of course black leather will work with every car color but isn't it a bit boring if you can really pick the interior you really would like to have..

Calypso/Champagne is a great combination...

I have a champagne leather with black dash... Sadly I dropped my car at the shop this morning so I will post pictures in a couple days when I get it back.

Mine was extended champagne.

hi, these are my door cards in black alcantara.....to make a set, i got the steering wheel, as well and the hand brake/shifter boots in black alcantara. i also got the safety belt boot in the same material... it´s very very nice on the touch and a bit different, for me, more sporty and luxurious...with red, purple and blue stitching.
