Im curious as to how many colour variations there have been for the interior upholstery, seats, dash, carpet..etc So as with the previous exterior colour thread, where users posted images of the various stock and indeed custom colour codings for the outside of your e28s, lets see some of those colourful interiors you guys have out there. One of each is plenty, so before you post, check it isnt already there ;)

Here is the new leather (as of April) from Jim's Auto Upholstery (in SD, CA) in my 535is. The flash kinda washed out the seat in the foreground, but the rear seats show it's true color.

Barge,

I think the two-tone looks great! What's with the extra plug on the rear door forward and above the window crank?

Am I correct to assume that my interior is the most common? Same as the American M5's at least..

Damn BMWgiant, those seats could really use some Leatherique! They would look great!

Here's mine anyway (they could also use a treatment). Dash is nice under the grandma cover, and I wanna keep it that way!

thats exactly what it was, i know they look kinda stupid but i didnt really care, i have power windows in the new E28 so i had to swap the caps around haha

yeah i was going for the full leather look as ive seen it on an E34 before and it looked fantastic! so i thought id give it a whirl, hopefully i pulled it off ey

yeah the wheels were replicas, 17X8 all round with federal rubber. they were pretty good wheels even though they were fakes, but VERY heavy!

thanks guys!

Is your seat-to-door panel mismatch intentional?

Thanks Kyle!

The interior is completely original and I owe the real thanks to the original owner. He had front and rear sheepskins for the first 21 years.

I am a little sour now that I found old pictures of my interior before my brother owned it for the few months he did. I am glad I bought it from him before he destroyed the rest of the car.. These pictures are a little over a year and a half ago.. :bawl:

interior of my M535i, with recently recovered manual sport seats that I did myself. The leather covers were purchased from Kevin, the Artisan:

interior of my 535i(that I sold to buy the m535i, and recently bought back), with manual cloth sports that need an assist from Kevin, the Artisan!: I have the fabric door cards, and those need a little work too.

Image

I am seriously considering swapping the black cloth interior into my m535i, and selling the 'new' pearl sport seats. I have a set of comforts that would go well with the multi-colored pearl trim, which would end up in the 535i.
