Kneepads retrofit on an individual

theove · 05-05-2018, 07:41 AM

Try to order kneepads for an Individual but BMW refuses to deliver Individual parts else then a BMW dealer.. And they won't order it to for a retrofit. So I ordered kneepads and went to a local shop. They redo the leather (exactly the same!) and stitching(exactly the same!). Also installed the carbon center cover and removed the thelephone cradle.

Nice.
Is it me or that leather color is different than the seat color?

Yes it is but it's the same as in the door and on the dash (see last picture).
It's a multi leather color interior.

Ahh, that's black napa with individual stitching color. Nice!!

Why did you have this down custom. I ordered this exact color from RG 6 months ago. Black nappa isn't an individual color. Or did you just want the brown stitching instead of silver?

That. Stitching in the car is brown with the black leather and black with the brown leather. Don't want another color in the centre.

Are you willing to part with the original hexagon trim? I may need a few pieces.

Looks beautiful. I have some individual Volcano Brown trim pieces, but I'm missing the center console trim. These kneepads in black to match my black dakota could be the way out for me.
