V10 M5 & M6 Carbon Trim Kits
by CarboProject GmbH
build journal: interior program
If BMW M Performance was a thing in 2005.

The financial crisis of 2008 robbed us of many things. BMW M's attention to the V10 M5 was one of them.

We got stuck with wood interiors and fancied over aluminum brushed trims.

Yawn.

As a part of my Build Journal entries in the Interior Program, I document the unboxing impressions and fitment of these carbon trims.

Made using OEM trims

René uses new Genuine BMW trims made in Germany.

[...] using the same process as Genuine BMW carbon.

René uses pre-preg carbon over sanded genuine trims for an OEM aesthetics, matching the optical direction of the weave.

All variants are available.

SMG, 6spd, M5, M6, CCC, CIC - whatever, René can do it.

Hand made to your specifications.

René customizes your center console to your preferred weave pattern and clear coat finish. Mine were 2x2 Gloss.

Bundled in kits.

Plus, full, partial - you can spec your interior to your liking.

Interior Carbon Modernization

I touched on how BMW designed arguably one of the worst looking interior of all time with the pre-LCI E60 on my build journal entry here and the installation process and finished work here

Made from brand new OEM trims using OEM quality pre-preg & autoclaved carbon fiber

René hand manufactures these kits using brand new, OEM trim kits from BMW in Germany to ensure perfect fitment. No core exchanged is required. The dash trims comes with brand new air vents as well. 

He uses the same manufacturing process as BMW M GmbH did on the CSL carbon fiber trim components: pre-preg & autoclaved overlays on the plastic OEM trims. 

The pre-preg and autoclaved manufacturing process, commonly called dry carbon, allows for a very thin application of carbon fiber, and is notoriously stronger than hand laid, wet carbon fiber applications.

Additionally, pre-preg provides a much more consistant carbon fiber pattern we've come to expect from high quality carbon manufacturers. 

Factory Matching CSL 1x1 Carbon Weave Pattern

The trims are available in 1x1 and 2x2 weave pattern. The 1x1 weave pattern is selected by René to precisely match the OEM CSL 1x1 weave pattern that was used by BMW GmbH.

You can opt for an OEM finish with a 2 component, hardened gloss clear coat, or opt for a contemporary matte clear coated finish. The gloss finish is wet sanded and polished to remove any surface imperfections. 

Kits:

The kits are available for all model years (pre-LCI and LCI). Specify your year in the Notes as you lock in your order. 

Partial Kit:

  1. Center Console with Ashtray and Accessory Cover
