Mind sharing the ballpark for the CF shifter and center console? Also, how hard are these to retrofit?

Thanks!

PS. Do you happen to know whether BMW will be releasing a special M model of the rear seat cover? I have one from my F15, but it attaches to the front seats by wedging between front headrest bars. Given the shape of the M seats, I'm fairly certain the F15 version will not work. Hoping BMW releases an M specific version, otherwise I'm going to have to go custom. 3 siberian huskies leave A TON of fur, dirt, etc!
The side grilles are black shadowline plastic like the rest of the car. No CF.

I don't yet have pricing for the interior parts.

The shifter and center console should be quick retrofits. The shifter is held on by a small screw under the glass window.

The center console should be held in place by clips. The only difficult part is disconnecting the wiring harnesses for the iDrive controller and DDC buttons, then transferring them over to the new piece.
