Mengwalton Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 Hi people,After I get back from Vegas I'm planning on swapping the interior out on my 330d I mean the current swade type ones are v comfy but don't look very nice hence swapping them but Im not sure what colour to go for the car is topaz blue , I always wanted red leather before but that was on my black 46 not sure how it would look on blue. Any suggestions on color? (if it comes to it I have some black half leather ones in the one I'm selling so could swap Thoose)Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mengwalton Posted September 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 Keep what you've got - they're comfier than leather ones! (I swapped leather -> fabric/alcantara)I know but tbh my half leather ones were nearly as comfy n I like the look of the leather ones and the bolster is all worn on this Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mengwalton Posted September 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 Get some grey ones, then dye them whatever colour you want Is this easy enough to do I saw some tan ones on a thread somewhere they looked great. I'm good at spraying and such just never tried anything like this before, I'll have a look for the threadSent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebel Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 That was Sive who recently coloured his tan brown from black. Pretty decent result by all accounts. sive s 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark_F Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 id love to swop mine to cream from grey, all the interior plastics are grey and the carpet so it'd be a right nightmare Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
e46 330ci vert Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 I remember I had this on my old e36 I had grey and wanted black then I found a guy who had black and wanted grey. he had his own bodyshop so seats/carpet/dash/doorcards/pillar trims/horseshoe flap (he even painted it my cars colour) I drove to him,all his car was stripped,then he stripped my car and rebuilt it with his black interior. done it all in 1 day,and I drove back with my black interior fitted. so everythings possible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mit Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 Cream interior makes me wana be sick in my own mouth! Why the f*k wud they put cream carpets in a car? Not like u take ur shoes off before ye get in! I really liked the beige interior in my car, and so did everyone who sat in it. Mind your sick, its not nice having to swallow it back because you have nowhere to spit it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Docz2K9 Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 I have beige & black contrasting interior & think it works quite well. You can always due yours topaz blue so it matches the exterior! You might think that's abit much though. But topaz blue dye is available if you need it Mengwalton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
