I appreciate your thoughts on the interior, personally i think it looks more classy having a contrasting coloured interior, as opposed to the full black setup. I was lucky enough to find the exact colour combination i was after, so am more than happy with it. If they did a dark red leather OEM trim, that would have been a preferred choice
With regards to the silver inserts, i hate them. Judging by the flawless finish on them, i assumed they were a factory item but i would of personally liked the dark wood trim. Im still in 2 minds as to what to do with them, because they are in such great condition, i was thinking of having them dipped in a dark wood finish.

You lucky bugger! Mine is a pig underneath

Glad you found what you were looking for in terms of colour combination. I'm fussy about certain things with cars/bikes too. I took me months to find my X. The dark red leather would be an interesting combination in an X. I almost bought a black M3 with that, but stayed within my 'comfort zone' and went with the black on black!
I don't know how good or how long the 'dipped' inserts would be or last for (chips, scratches etc), especially when refitting them... it might be worth just buying a complete set of trim in the colour of your choice. You could then sell the silver trim and get some of the outlay back on the new ones.. Just a suggestion
