    Crowdfunding: 1:1 OEM Carbon Center Console

    Crowdfunding: 1:1 OEM Carbon Center Console
    Link to commit.

    ----
    Hey guys,

    I had posted this previously on the forum, and on a few groups online. There was significant interest to develop a negative mold for a complete pre-preg & autoclave carbon fiber center console replica made from a genuine BMW standard center console.

    This would allow you to retain cup holders, euro trays, armrests and any other accessories you run with your center console. As there are various accessory configurations to the standard center console, René will be doing a 1:1 replica without any changes to the OEM design.

    I am personally still going back and forth between CSL or standard. For anyone prioritizing comfort and ergonomics, this is it.

    Regular pricing would be 699$, the crowdfunding price is 499$ + shipping.

    We need to hit 25x committed members with deposits to get this going. ETA is 10 to 12 weeks once the orders are in.

    Link to commit.

    Specifications
    • Made in Germany
    • Compatible with OEM armrest, cup holders, buttons and ebrake
    • Pre-Preg & Autoclaved Carbon Fiber Construction Process
    • Made using a negative mold, not an overlay.
    • Available in 1x1 and 2x2 weave pattern
    • 1x1 is the exclusive CSL weave pattern as used by BMW M
    • Available in gloss and matte 2 component hardened clear coat
    Installation Notes
    Accessories are not included. You will re-use your current e-brake handle, booth, armrest, cup holders, hazard lights and sliding trays.

    Pictures below are for demonstration purpose only. They are an OEM center console with a pre-preg overlay, and not the actual end product.
