ash grain with red or black leather? i was asking about the red leather... if red can you share a pic?

The wood is black with silver accent so it would look good on red however I would likely go with aluminum

Sure. Maybe tomorrow when it's light out

Another vote for anthracite. Most of the time it looks black. Has a hint of gray in it too.

Plus one on this combo. Looks fantastic

Why not get the base and upgrade to m performance trim or m3 trim.

Sorry for the delay.

Unless you have direct light on it then Ash grain looks black or near black most of the time. You need something dark to contrast the red leather.

I had piano black in my E90 which is nice but you need to have a microfiber towel with you at all times to take off the dust. Besides, that's an expensive option.

This was on my previous 435i Estoril Blue with Coral Red, It had Aluminium trim, The superman combo is awesome!, and now on my 440i I'm going with Aluminium Dark Carbon with Pearl Gloss.
