Raza, do you think it is possible to wrap the bottom piece of the steering wheel center on the updated steering wheels? I know we can purchase a carbon fiber piece, but could you wrap it?

Ahh, you're following the same weave pattern on all the trim.

I flipped mine from side to side so that they all look like they're going down and forward

So basically they all look like yours except for the trim right to the left of the steering wheel and the 2 door panels on the driver's side.

This is becoming a very popular mod. There is a guy over on "zpost" (a Z4 board) that is doing the same thing for people and having great success.

Carbon Leather interior is expensive! So....... - ZPOST

even if it wasnt the pattern would still go the same way, since the fabric is one sided and the way i used the design it went ///.
