Just curious how many of you would be interested in getting your interior trim wrapped in Silver Black or Titanium Stealth Auto carbon fiber? our carbon Fiber manufacturer is amazing, with super high quality fit and finish, so be assured you will be getting the best products available. A core exchange will be required.

I do not have exact prices yet, as it will depend on the demand. Please let us know what color and what parts you want wrapped and we'll give a quote. Thanks!

PS: Although I have personally owned 2 1995 E36 M3's I sold my last one about 1 year ago... it has been a while, so if any of you have pics of the specific parts you want wrapped, please post them here. Thanks!

I would like to have the inserts in carbon fiber, I don't know about the whole panel though. I would also be willing to be a tester if needed!

Looks like you are in the LA area, yes? If so, if you are interested in being a "tester" we'd love to have you come by our shop (2209 Federal Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90064) to give us your interior. Although we cannot "give" you the CF interior, we'd ba happy to give it to you at cost... which should be around 20% off retail. If you are interested, let us know! Also, please let us know if you'd be more interested in Silver, Black or Titanium CF. For an example of each color, check out our CF steering wheel trim http://www.stealthauto.com/Store/ProductInfo.aspx?productid=BMI-E46W-*

Cheers

I think you'll find a much bigger market for E36 parts at this forum. There is almost an over abundance of E36 owners here compared to other series.

any way you could get black cf with red threads? like the ones that come in the LTW?

if so, i'd be willing to pay for a dashboard and seatbacks.

General ballpark figure for this? Definitely interested for an E36 Sedan application. And I like yellowbullet's idea about black cf with red interwoven. Or perhapes other colors of weave? Maybe blue? Hell, you could probably do it in any color as a special order, right?

Here is an interesting question .... what about the door panel inserts ? I would really like to switch it up a bit and get some serious semi-custom stuff going. Perhaps if the cost is high just the trim, interior door handles, shift knob, seatbelt covers ?

That is a really cool idea, CF door panels would go perfect with my Dove Grey/Black recaros... I would definately be down for that along with CF console, dash insert, and maybe a radiator cover at cheaper than Dinan pricing:D

I also would be glad to offer my highly/tastefully modified 328i as a testing platform for the e36 sedan. I am very close to you guys and I wouldn't mind stripping out interior parts. My car would make a great sponsor car since I turn up at just about every So-cal meet... Let me know

Sorry to be so late getting back to you all, we have been super busy re-organizing our shop over the past couple weeks, plus we are hiring a new person to help out starting this Monday.

In regards to the E36 CF, we are still looking into doing this for all you E36 owners but need just a bit more time.

Since we are more familiar with the E46, if you guys could send pics or OEM part #'s of the pieces you want wrapped, that would be great! If you need help finding part number try, http://www.realoem.com/bmw/

For a faster response, you can always email me at todd(at)stealthauto.com

We look forward to bringing you guys some amazing products:redspot, just hang in there a little bit more!

Alright guys, i'm here with an update. we're speaking to our Carbon Fiber supplier and we're getting exact pricing on E36 parts. We should have pricing for individual parts in the next week or so. :buttrock

Just as a ballpark estimate, how many of you would be interested in Carbon Fiber interior parts? And if so, what color Carbon Fiber? Options are Silver, Titanium, or Black Carbon Fiber... see picture below

this is such a crazy sick idea... I am glad someone is doing.

I'd be interested in all the colors!!! oh wait I only have 1 car... arg well I wud like to see what the product look likes first I suppose.... what color does everyone suggest for a Cosmos? I was thinking just the black CF then again.... I cud get a little crazy with the titanium or even silver!!!!


Very Very cool idea. I am definitely in. What pieces are you going to do? I hope 95% of the interior!!!!:buttrock

02-13-2006, 08:36 PM

I'm extremely sorry for the delay, but we've been extremely busy in here. We just moved into our new shop and we're just getting things together. It would be of great help if everyone could go to www.realoem.com (http://www.realoem.com) and give us exact part #'s for the pieces you're looking for. This would ensure that you get EXACTLY what you want and we don't mold useless unwanted pieces. :)

Thanks alot everyone and we hope to get the show on the road soon. :buttrock

I was thinking the door panel inserts. Part no: 51418204573 and the like on realoem. The shifter trim.

If it turns out to be to expensive then perhaps the shifter trim, door handles (no. 51418165697 and the like) and the strip on the dash above the glove box (no 51168170665 ?).

I would personally prefer something that has a clean appearance (door panel inserts) or something that is small and discreet.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but you work at a dealership correct? Parts sales?
Do you know if these are being fabricated still or these are discontinued?
And how hard is it to get them since they're from the LTW series?

Another thing I would be interested in if its possible is the speaker trim for the front doors. No part #'s listed on realoem.

I personally would like anything/everything in titanium. (which should look sweet on my shwartz II/black ride)

Personally, I'm more interested in reducing weight, or at least keeping it down. Wrapping things in CF is only going to add to the weight of my car, and that's not cool. What about ACTUAL carbon fiber parts, not wraps?
