Discussion
I have been looking for some small little things to add to my car.
Namely:
Leather Steering wheel cover, to make the thin SE wheel a bit better and more chunky
Number plate frame;
Not the tacky BMW M MUNCHEN M POWER M M M ones but some that the true enthusiast will understand (authentic Germany dealer plates)
BMW Niederlassung München
BMW "Freude am Fahren" Frankfurt
BMW Regensburg
BMW HANKO Koblenz
I have emailed 10 dealers, attached is one from Munich:
Next item:
E91 door bins.
Does anyone know where to get good ones of these and if they had any experience with the item. Just subtle little things that add more to the function than form [bar the plate frames, been after to those for years but never tried emails]
Has anyone got any dealer frames and if so how did you acquire them?
All things appreciated [other than hate

The rest seem to have ignored me, bar one flatly refusing and the other saying that they have forwarded it on.Gerne leite ich Ihr Anliegen an die zuständigen Kollegen weiter.

I don't know why a true enthusiast would appreciate an advert from a dealer you've never bought anything from let alone the car itself and a leather steering wheel cover is going to look fairly nasty.
Instead, don't bother with any of the cheesy crap and look at fitting a new steering wheel - it's not a difficult job and Ebay is full of used M Sport examples. You could even seek out a particularly tatty one for cheap and then send it to one of the guys who does leather retrims - net result, a brand new feeling M Sport wheel.
You'll appreciate that much more than a fake cover and a plastic frame from a random German dealer.

I'm not looking for any M Sport wheels, had them before and loved them but don't want to fork out £200+ as my wife wont understand why it is worth £200... just want some genuine leather covers for her as she finds it too thin.Instead, don't bother with any of the cheesy crap and look at fitting a new steering wheel - it's not a difficult job and Ebay is full of used M Sport examples.

For £260 I can buy some 17" M Sport wheels on Potenza run flats (she wants to keep the runflats!!)
The plate frames are a well known thing on e90post and bimmerforums... think Jinkster on here has succeeded... Frankfurt has so many requests they just list it up for sale on the BMW-Original Teile.

Probably better off spending the money on your own car if you have one.
Course i have my own carIll just spend a tenner on a steering wheel cover for her and get the plate holder or if i cant be arsed and they are taking too long just put one off ebay on the new private plate

Inane thread with melodramatic thread title, only missing multiple exclamation marks.
Where do I post my complaint?
I'm more interested to see if anyone got the Bmw german dealer plates..Where do I post my complaint?
Thats what the thread was about to see if people could help me get some. Unfortunately people have just decided to be unhelpful with my question and question the steering wheel cover and make it go off topic..
