    No, no, he doesn't. It's all cloth in his car, but the plastics are all the same.

    He's letting me swap it because his car is a pile of sh!te! Rusty as hell and runs like a crippled old fart.

    The seats aren't in great condition, but my grey interior is tidy enough that it may improve the inside of his car. The black carpet will need a good clean, too.. :hihi

    Oh, believe me.. It's not. :eek It was a lot of humming and hawing. :hihi

    If you check in my project thread you'll see the interior that I bought; red and black with door cards.

    The plastic was all navy blue, and two of the doorcards were cracked and drilled and some other things I fear to mention.

    I bought a full black set from Tony [mess], who gave me a quick tip on my plan to swap the leather insert in place of the cloth on the black ones.

    So now I have red leather inserts in black doorcards. Looks really nice, but I still don't have it in the car. Waiting for a dry day.

    The plan is to strip the black interior [Carpet, Dash, Parcel Shelf, Seats, Console, etc] from my brother's 318i, and the grey interior from my own.

    Chuck the grey interior into my brothers car and put the black stuff into my car, swap the plastic's on the front seats over to my leather front seats. Install the whole lot into my car!

    Will be a long and arduous task, but will also be well worth it.

    I did, I did. I keep meaning to take a picture and write a how-to for the forum.

    I also need to write a how-to for swapping e36 door-card inserts. I'm so lazy... :embarrassed

    Hi Pal, hope this gets to you as I'm still a right n00b with this site.
    I've gotta be honest, Oxford might be a little far for me at the moment. If I'm going that far I'd want the car to be a further along than it is lol
    Cheers though, I'm still up for the more local meets if there are any.
