Carbon Interior (Warning Big Photos)

So i popped over to Robson Design (http://www.robson-design.com/english/profile.htm) - Singapore, on Sunday morning last week and had the trims off for a whole week (while i took an overseas business trip).

All I can say is, i love my new interior (coming from 2 Z4s which had both brushed aluminium trim)

All the pieces are impeccable, perfect without any form of flaws I could see. The weave is all consistent and the quality is superb (the trims were flown to Japan to be done).

I have to give credit to Tommy from Robson Design who worked on getting the trims done so professionally and beautifully. They work even on Sundays so they are seriously a bunch of hardworking folks. Also to Zpost member ( 218dhb) for getting started on his first at http://www.zpost.com/forums/showthread.php?t=259337

Mine is a Z4MC Sapphire black. Enjoy.

I had the day photos taken with a friends' Canon 450D, and the night/evening photos are with my crappy iPhone. In the night, the CF trims are really oh damn sweet in the cabin.

Anyway how, without further ado, here are some pics.

looks like mine..only ur wheel is on the wrong side! haha

thanks for the mention, now people have more pics to know what it looks like a bit better.
nice car!

have you thought about how your going to keep it up in terms of waxs? i used that Turtle wax Ice stuff yesterday but have not really got a good look to see if it makes a difference. the good thing about this stuff is you can get it on plastic, vinyl, or rubber and it leaves no trace unlike regular wax.

Careful that you mask off the dash around the areas your waxing with painters tape or something. If you get wax on the dash you might be screwed.. :/

I think it would look better to have the steering wheel spokes done in CF as well ?

I think it's overkill if you do the spokes. It can get really tacky if you overdo something. I've seen alot of cases of CF overkill.
