Very nice indeed: is that ordered from the dealership & did you fit it yourself? Mind if I ask, was it expensive? It's always twice as much in the UK anyway!

That's an interesting look compared with the usual wood grain option.

Nice job

Do they do anything for the cupholders as they look out of place. I think it looks great.

Might go for that if they do it for Right hand Drive.

I might be tempted if they did that grey poplar type trim that isn't an option on the Z4.

However, in general German cars and wood don't go well together. Anyone remember Mercedes's 'Zebrano' wood? Ever seen a Zebrano tree? It was genuine wood, with the appearance of Formica.

Jaguar know how to do wood...

Edit: they do the grey poplar. Are these real wood or a photograph of some wood? The Z4 kit appears to be around $150! In the UK, for a kit like that we'd be looking at the equivalent of about $1000!

I wonder how their carbon would look against the BMW carbon leather dash ?
Certainly cheap compared to BMW prices in the UK.

Looks like they don't do a RHD version, although the only problem I can see is around the window controls. Everything else looks symmetrical, unless the buttons on the various centre console panels are reversed on the European models.
