Finally Got My Fresh Modena Interior...

[poth2034]

I have been looking to replace my Modena interior for quite some time and finally found a mint set from VandBMdubbin (chris) last week... I swapped everything out the next day and was amazed how much better my car looked... Non the less I finally got around to post the pics... Enjoy

Oh man I couldn't stand driving in that lol. Looks much much better, well done.

[DJWhitebread]

So this is called Modena interior? Yours looks VERY nice... makes the entire interior look new! No UFC fights on these like you obviously did on your others!

Can hardly tell the diff between yours and mine (below)...

The before shots hurt my eyes, but the after shots look amazing.

I love Modena.

[E30Alpina]

OP those are my old seats, sit in them lovingly as I did. They look great

[FUN M3]

gr8 job, see modena always makes me rethink my blk interior

[ali318i]

Wow that looks awesome! :D

[Mr. Lin]

i think that's saddle brown on the e92.

[busterhax]

Ugh that's like magic. I feel like i could eat off of those seats.

[narbeh07]

Titsss.. been looking for any color m3 with the modena interior..Looking goood

[LBCpride]

WHAT happened to the first ones? I really hope the P.O. was at fault and not you! But things are really looking good now! Keep those up

[dak1b]

i'm loving the new interior color. great swap from the old seats!!!!! BIG DIFFERENCE@@!!!

[poth2034]

Wow. Night and day difference. It must feel like a new car when you are in it now :D

Yea it really does feel like a new car... No more squeaks and rattles...


wow fuckin amazing... did you change the carpet too? or just washed the shit out of it... and are the new seats still stock not redone?

Nope I hand scrub it until I could get most of the stains out... It was pretty nasty... I guess the previous owner was a fatty since all I found were old dried up french fries.


OP those are my old seats, sit in them lovingly as I did. They look great

I bought the seat covers to go over them to try and keep them super fresh...

Yea the previous owner tried to hand sew the leather together and used a cheap dye to do a cover up... Every time I would condition the seat, the dye would come off...

[DJWhitebread]

Mr. Lin... it is saddle brown. I just thought maybe Modena was a nickname for it. I'm still new to some of the slang terms... sorry!

So what is Modena and why is it called that? I didn't see it as an option on BMW's website... Thanks!

[Riku]

Insane color combo...I love your car.

[Tatalalicious]

oooo modena :eek: I like alot

[Bsaint]

Wow they look mint,

I need to get a replacement Drivers Dove Vader

Modena was available on select E36 M3s starting in 96 (I think?). I don't believe they still use it, hence why it's not on the website.

[r.bot]

That interior looks pristine! Now maybe a new steering wheel and it would be complete.

So you only bought new covers? I thought I saw your seats up for sale the other day.
How much did it end up costing?

[Phiberglass]

Very nice, my buddy did this also, looks great.*

[336motorsports]

haha

Chris just bought those seats back from me. Thats the color combo I wanted, and is the reason I bought this modena. Your car looks fantastic bro, Chris is a great guy! Its good to see that interior end up in such a sweet ride!

[///Montizzle]

:drool: fresh Modena

I want Dakar/Modena more than life itself

[DeM3n]

Dayumm! Looks very fresh and clean!

[Clutchh]

Bad to the Ass!

[blackarrow]

[Dricebrug]

Estoril.

Win automatically.

[Bene36m3]

I almost did this. I was about to pick up a set of modena interior to swap out for my black, but i could use the money for something else. Huge difference. Car looks clean now.

Its a long story but I picked up the entire interior from chris and swapped it out with my old worn out interior witch I'm selling now.

[MOTOREN]

Really nice upgrade, i got the same color interior with black carpet.

[seven11]

[Exige]
