I'm struggling with the black plastic trim with the M logo on it in the centre of the shifter. It's not shifting I saw that tip too, in fact I'll try that first. |

I did the additional interior carbon, as per the OP. It really lifts the interior. I did the shifter, surround and handbrake first which looked great, but the lack of steering wheel carbon started to bug me, so I bit the bullet and did that too. I have the black grills and gills, MPE and carbon diffuser, but I'm trying to resist any further exterior carbon...wish me luck!
The dental floss trick on the DCT shifter insert is definitely the way to go, just go steady and it comes off cleanly to the point that it's reusable, should the replacement ever get scuffed. |

Managed to make the swap yesterday. The black plastic on the shifter was not budging so the MP CF is there to stay. No way am I going to try getting it off come resale.
The black plastic for the new one wasn't a great fit either and there's virtually no gap to stick even the thinnest of flat head screwdrivers in there. Had to really force it in and there was a loud snap. Thankfully no damage. The alcantara and CF surround isn't a great fit either. Funny because the same parts in my M135i fit perfectly and were much easier to install and remove. CF mirrors next. *gulp* |
