I mentioned in another post how happy I was with my boots. They are $60 shipped for the shift boot and e-brake boot. I also had some new booties made for around my seatbelts which came out excellent. The leather matches about perfectly and I love the black stitching. :D

Also check out my new shift knob. I believe it came from a 6spd 530i with the M-sport package. The leather on the front is much nicer than the all wood knob and mine was busted anyways.

The install is a pain because it takes a while. Not really hard. Basically you tear your existing boots off the frame and glue the new ones on. I did it while I was watching TV.

I got the seatbelt boots from redline as well. I actually sent him my stock ones to make a prototype. If they are not on the web site you should be able to ask him to make some for you.

Here is the before pic for comparison. I think it looks much sportier and makes the interior feel much newer.
