Anthracite interior

To spend 1300 or not on the headliner and slider? I already have the pillars, trim etc? really wanted to do this but I'm questioning spending that kind of cash on it. Any input welcomed!

The sliding piece that opens/closes below the actual glass roof.

Is this going in your 328i? I'd skip it, personally.

If was a 335 would you feel differently? Cause that's pretty pretentious. I got a 328 specifically as I wanted an n/a motor.

I have it in mine, so I'd say skip it. That money would be better spent elsewhere.

I don't think its actually that pretentious... at some point you need to think of mods as a % of overall cost of the car. Extreme example: would you buy a $3,500 honda civic and drop $5k + on a set of HRE rims and tires?

I have it in my X5 and I love knowing that my kids won't get fingerprints on it... or my lady friend won't accidentally mark it with makeup when pulling down the visor. Well worth it in my opinion.

Well I completely agree with that however having 6 years left on the loan and having paid 12.5k I feel like I have a pretty good value with my car.

Not at all. I just don't think that expenditure of cash is worthwhile on a car that's not a keeper - but if your 328 is a keeper, then go for it. Additionally, it will not get you a higher resale value or trade in value.

I would spend the money elsewhere. Anyways, it is your money and if you want to improve the interior of your ride then go for it.
