I know most of you either know about or have done these mods, but thought I would post to give any newbies some ideas.
First One, shortened my knob £20 from ebay (used)
Now, this feels even more comfortable, as my arm can rest on the armrest and it's just the right height for the gearknob.
Dont see how you could have one of these short knobs with a Mark IV Armrest :evil:
Second One
Blackout Grills
Gives a more aggressive look, and suits black cars IMO
Removed Grills and seperated from fins, sanded and applied Acrylic Matt Black From Screwfix. Wait to see how long it lasts, but the paint is meant to be tough.
I had tried using blackout tape but after two attempts gave up. It's to much grief trying to get the tape round the corners, tried applying heat and so on...
Cost Just over £5.00
Third One
My Twins bought me Twin Tailpipes for my birthday
Why BMW let a car like this out of the factory without these I dont know, my only surprise when opening the box was that they are not chrome.
