I have Titan but on alcanatara seats and thinks it works well since more sporty and blends with door handles.

Im one of the rare few who likes wood as my M5 has black birch but in this application my choice remains with Titan. I like the "thought" of black trim but practically speaking if you DD the X or any car its a royal PITA to remain in decent condition especially on the console.

Cross-posting from the "What did you do today" thread.

Just wrapped my dark walnut in carbon fiber. Looks solid, in my opinion. Haven't done the rear or center console yet though.

I purchased real CF trim my guess is in 2006. I think it was between was $8-900. It came from UK and was supposedly the last new set available. I can't even imagine the 5%.

Is that a stock wheel? I've seen a handful of X5s with it, but never quite understood if it was an option or where it came from.

No, That's an M3 SMG paddle shift wheel. I changed the steering wheel and set it up so I could utilize the paddle shift feature.

There's a set of that available on Ebay now for ~$1500. From over seas of course. Out of my price range unfortunately...
