Going back over all your old videos as just bought Mrs a e87 1 series convertible 😂 thanks for inspiring me mate, started to do all minor mods on my 530d would have never done it before watching your videos 🙌👏
thanks for this video, I was searching for a 1 series with a good trim on the interior because I couldnt stand the wood look, I eventually caved and bought a 2011 128i w 45k miles, the low mileage was attractive and the car is in great condition, but it had the wood panels. can't wait to change them!
you can remove the plastic part on the steering wheel i wrapped mine and it looks amazing. it removes the ugly worn paint look. its a total of 5 screws.easy
That’s the thing... BMWs are DRIVERS cars, it’s all about feeling the road and the enjoyment of turning the wheel and changing gears. I CAN NOT WAIT to get mine 🤣🤣🤣
Agreed. Having driven a couple of F20s recently, then hopping back in my E82, BMW are definitely sacrificing the quality of the interior to keep the price point down. While some people may think the newer models look more modern, they actually look (and feel) very cheap.
Yes you can remove the steering wheel trim and make it how you want it, I've done it and aaaalso regarding your last video, I've managed to repair the center glove box to open easily, reply if you want me to tell you how :) nice vids man
@@erodedsenses2271 hey, it has to tabs that go in the wholes when it's closed. Get a razor and try to make the wholes bigger so that the tabs don't get stuck when you try to open it. It takes you 2 minutes but please be carefull not to make the wholes too big, try scrapping little by little. Opens like a dream, it is usefull now :))
Great vid ! For the steering wheel and gear lever get the one from an e82 135i msport. Please don’t get the 1m bumper please please please. E90 steering wheels also fit
My old mini r56 did that too, it’s so you can start the car and then leave it locked to warm up i assume on cold mornings or just for convenience? Think it’s called run lock
Totally agree. The TT interior (mk2) will still hold up in 10-20 years time.. I love the bmw 1 series coupe and convertible but the interior is TERRIBLE.. that horrid, horrid curve across the entire dashboard ruins the symmetry of the car in my opinion.. (not to mention it’s highlighted in cheap silver plastic, cuts of the vent, etc)..
Where is the wrapper from? And my car shows the motor sign as well..you mentioned that you know what it is and thatˋll show it to us. Íd be really relieved. and thank you! :)
I’ve got them on mine that’s why i suggested it, I’m debating about getting a splitter and side skirts but I don’t know if it’s overkill as I’ve already got M Sport bumper

Can confirm the the trick works for the automatic versions as well

Wolven Emperor How do you remove it? Screws on back of steering wheel. My screw holes feel like they’re covered with leather.

you can always re-start the 1 series e88/e91/e87 aslong as you dont open the driver door after pulling the key out, you can even lift the clutch
Have you got a link for the wrap? I think it looks great.

Michael B thanks a lot for that buddy, my sunglasses box works perfectly now haha
@@erodedsenses2271 glad to hear that, amazing news 😊
Tell me hwo
What about the door opening levers? Can they be removed and wrapped as they are silver?
yeah I'm sure they can!
Put your clutch in at the same time as putting your foot on the accelerator and you activate launch control 😉
U got a video on that matw

My 120d msport 2010 has silver trim but has a knurled finish which does scratch very easily or at least you can not see it.👍
Ditto, the M sport has leather, leather door cards and better a quality silver effect. Plus M sport decals on the steering wheel and gear leaver
Looks sick bro 👍🏼
Thanks Man!
Looks good man!
Why not go full send and get the M2 style bumper. Although our builds will be identical with that. Loving how it's coming along.
My favorite rapper

Try a short shift kit, it transforms the car.
Hiya Mat, When ordered the wrap, what size did you get please ?
Did you figure it out? Thanks
@@rafaelbezerra8048 i need i too

How much wrap would u suggest I buy as a beginner?
My old mini r56 did that too, it’s so you can start the car and then leave it locked to warm up i assume on cold mornings or just for convenience? Think it’s called run lock
I personally think that the carbon fibre will look better than this❤️
Please post a link for the wrap. Can't seem to be able to find it. Thanks!

hey man, i know this is an older vid so might not get a response, but there's a tone of different sizes on that link, what size did you purchase ?
What size did you end up using?
What size sheet did you use to wrap the interior?
are you happy with that gray ashtray?
Where is the wrapper from? And my car shows the motor sign as well..you mentioned that you know what it is and thatˋll show it to us. Íd be really relieved. and thank you! :)

The interior is one of the main reasons why I am gonna buy a one series bmw 1 series
Just need an alacantra steering wheel now😉

What's the bump on top of the dash just above the two vents?! Storage?

50cn gives you enough with a fair bit left over
Mat Armstrong lovely cheers for that mate
@@jakesparrow1397 what size it is?Thanks

Hi bro .are you from London

We're do u get the wrap from man ?

U forgot the door handles lol
Change that ugly gear knob to an m-sport one please
Carbon fiber is more cute..
You've ruined it, you changed scratches for what looks like scratches and fingerprints and you totally lost the contrast of original silver/black.
You own a Bmw and use a Mercedes cap? 🤣🤣🤣
haha i just like german cars!
msport better:p
That looks shit mate..its like a 90s marble kitchen top ..ah well each to thier own i suppose ..carryon
Hey @MatArmstrongbmx the door car where the small part is to open the door how can i recover that piece i wanna see how it's done
Ugly wrap :D
