Well the plaid wasn't working out. I wanted to start my project last Sunday @ 5:30pm so my choices for stores to go to were quite limited. So I just picked up the best thing I could find at the only store that was open.
So yesterday I hit some stores and found exactly what I was looking for, some peanut butter suede. I've wrapped a lot of different things with a lot of different materials but I must say that this is my best work. It turned out money, usually there's always a little spot that I'm not happy with but this material was awesome to work with.*
Here's the final result.
After getting the trim done I turned to my headliner. Stupid gray headliner. Why did they make it gray!
I'm just about to start the process of removing it and doing it in a black suede. I'm also going to do all of the pillars I haven't decided on black or the PB yet.
Headliner in question. It clashes pretty bad now.
This should be interesting. Wish me luck, I'm going to need it!
Stay tuned.*

The first words out of my mouth when I saw your car covered in newspaper and plastic while you painted all the chrome was badass. I don't know many people who would get a nice ass, newer bmw and start painting it themselves. Everything you have done to this car has been bold and turned out looking alright. Keep up the amazing workHold on, Not done accelerating

Got everything pulled to wrap the headliner. It wasn't too bad, kind of fun ripping it apart actually. The one tough part was the sunroof shade. It was a bitch. Luckily I have a buddy who had removed it before so he helped me through it over the phone.
Used this DIY: http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=303463
Pics!
Will update once I'm finished with the pieces tonight.

Well it proved to be more that a nights work. Lol. Got a lot done but still have a lot to do.
I couldn't leave all the accent pieces grey so they all had to have something done to them. They all got blacked out with different products depending on what the pieces were made out of.
These pieces all got plasti dipped.
The sun visors got taped off and sprayed with a fabic/vinyl spray paint. Not sure if I am going to paint the plastic around the mirror yet but I'm sure that it will bother me if I dont.
These are the pieces that are being wrapped. I have about half of them done so far.
Tackling the rest of the pieces and the headliner now. I decided to do the brown on the pillars. It will add some contrast and plus I didn't buy enough black to do it. Lol so it better look good or I'm going to have to get more material and do it over.
