I have to say, it feels great! Smooth with a bit of texture. All that's missing now is a bit more brush alu trim tastefully done inside and all set!

I have to say it is a great improvement over the carbon fiber knobbie. I bet it looks nice with the grey carpet. It looks like it would have good grip to it. The wooden one in mine gets slippery sometimes.

Yeah looks great :) I just need some brushed trim where you have your wood accents now... of course, that would just make it look like the inside of a Z4 or something :|

My 525i came with one of those and an M-Tech steering wheel. The wheel is listed on the factory option sheet, along with M-Tech suspension. Therefore, I think the M-Tech knob is acceptable.
