Vote now, brush aluminum or carbon? :evil:

I'd have to vote for Carbon - I really don't like the brushed aluminium!

Thankfully my current Z4 came with Cirrus Aluminium which I much prefer.

So just in case you like it I might as well add a photo. :lol:

Looks better like it is

 

[maxman]

I would go for carbon

 

[paddy wright]

As is looks good!

 

[djstan]

I like the standard spec!

I like the fineline wood trim your car has but I think it looks more at home in a 5 or 7 series then in a Z4. Of all the trims available in the E89 I like the brushed aluminium trim which is what I have in mine, although I have to say the brushed aluminium in the E85 looks odd perhaps because it covers so much of the dash. As far as the wraps goes it is difficult to tell unless you can see them physically.

Has to be Carbon or Piano Black I think, aluminium with cream leather won't go.

I'd go with these thoughts
I have the trim that the OP currently has and I really like it, I am a bit old man though

The faux wood is much nicer, love it in our car.

I'd rather have what you already have than the silver carbon that came in my car

Find a greyish brown carbon wrap, that will look 8) ....will still work with your colour scheme and give a more sporty elegant look

Dude, you're covering up that fineline wood effect? I think that looks frigging fantastic!!!!!!! Sacrilege!
To answer the question, of the wto, the carbon effect. Brush alumium is shite

I wrapped my trim in black carbon, similar to what you're looking at doing.

Black carbon or piano black - easy enough to do yourself

 

[marioz4]

Done. before and after. BTW this wood is nothing else than plastic, when i took all off i realized just a plastic imitation to wood effect. I think i selected maybe to light carbon so in a year or so i may go for darker one. I also covered radio cover which was just black plastic and this connect bottom with top dash and i think it look great

Nice job, I’m coming round to the idea..how difficult is it to strip the parts out..as a newbie wrapper how diffusion it?

Any pointers?

Taking all out was easy, it took me 1.30h.. putting all back took 30min. There is video on u tube guys from Japan explaning step by step... now wrapping thing as i never did b4 it was so so...happy for my first time but will come back to it again as few things not perfect..however even if not perfect longest its not that crappy wood i am happy

Looks really good with the red leather. I like that.
