I installed most of the titanium trim and have been trying to decide on shift knob and E brake handle. I think I have decided to go with the original leather shift knob but was wondering what everyone thinks about the E brake choices. I'm trying to decide between the BMW leather handle and the bimmian new style aluminum handle. Opinions on which would look the best.
Ive got the Bimmian for both my shift knob and the ebrake handle. Ive yet to install it. I just got it last week. Ill report back to you on how I like it once its in.
Christian, is that UUC knob backlit?

Ah thats right. I forgot I sent you the solid one.
That combination is exactly what Im looking for, the UUC set but instead of the leather Im looking for... yep you guessed it CFiber inlay. Cant seem to find that combo thats backlit.

Bimmian has the ebrake handle with CF instead of leather. But now with stainless steel, though.
As for making them backlight, it shouldn't be too difficult.......in theory. But that would come after the CF inlay bit.
I have a Whalen knob custom engraved with the ///M5 logo. it sits atop a leather-z alcantara boot with m tri-color stitching. I haven't upgraded the e-brake stuff yet; but I should. The trim is peeling on the handle and I want the alcantara to match the shift boot. oh well. takes money I don't have right now.
