Subtle Interior Mod - Start Button OEM+

Post by Deepseaskateboard » Mon Jul 19, 2021 11:06 am

After trawling ebay for an e89 drivers glove box in red, this product popped up on my radar.

I was skeptical of the quality and finish, but for £2.60 I thought it was worth a go.

It’s a very thin piece of machined aluminium, incredible quality and finish. Adds a subtle quality upgrade to the cabin, rather than the chipped black plastic which needs the occasional sharpie over.

I have never been a fan of the red start buttons, but I think this is really good!

Looks good with the red interior.

Looks to be one of those rare OEM+ mods which does not look tacky! (In my opinion!)

Opinions welcome!
