I painted all the trim flat titanium and painted my steering wheel also which was very deteriorated and it came out like NEW!
The steering wheel is what impressed me the most. I used some vinyl paint and was actually willing to send my wheel to get redone in leather but I decided to give this a shot and it looks absolutely spectacular. I just hope it lasts. Push comes to shove I'll just redo the thing.

Thanks for the comments guys! It took me a whole 8 hours to do...the freaking CD changer was a nightmare because I've never done it this before and I had no instructions so I had to guess how to open it up and remove the wood part without breaking anything.
The door trims are also hard to mess with, it pretty much sucked to be honest...lol.

How do you guys feel about this interior, I've never to this day seen an E63 in real life with that color. Personally I love the cream/biege color, it always looks so premium and uplifting. This particular one I would change the tone a bit however I think it looks good. The black cluster really helps the color come out too.

For me, these interiors are just alot of that is due to the color, they would look good in black too but I think sand/beige/cream and black are as good as each other, well that's my opinion anyway.

what vinyl paint did you use and did you do it with steering wheel in place or removed? I was thinking about painting my steering wheel as its kinda showing some age to it

The titanium/silver looks great! I would be all over this if I ended up with an E55 with light wood. Luckily I found the black wood in the car I wanted.

Looks like E500 sport version. Not my taste. I like better with classic look then sporty look. I like much better the E63 wood trim classic look better. IMO
