Brilliant White with Top Stitch Interior!

I saw the thread Chris put up about the Top Stitch group buy and I was immediately in. I already had plans for the interior treatment, so this was perfect timing. The scheduling was challenging as I live in SD and Top Stitch is up in L.A. After talking to Chris and Anthony (owner of Top Stitch) we set up a date for me to drop off the car.

I spend most of my time with the car inside, so I wanted to make the interior custom and special. I already wanted to do the headliner, pillars, shift boot and e-brake boot with double stitching that matched the existing fox red interior, but I also wanted to cover the dash to match. I know this is a little above and beyond the usual order, but Anthony did not hesitate and said they could do it no problem. We discussed a few options and then agreed upon the total order package and timeline. Keep in mind that Top Stitch sets a date and meets the date. They do whatever it takes to make the date without sacrificing quality or craftsmanship. Their work speaks for itself.

Anthony at Top Stitch met me when I dropped off the car and he showed me around his showroom and shop. It is a newer place for them and has much more room in front and in back. The shop was very spacious and clean. He had completed some work on other customer's cars (Constantin was one) and showed me the quality. I was blown away! The work that Top Stitch does is absolutely Top Notch! They ensure that the quality of their work is the absolute best as they had a veteran BMW Technician work to remove and install my dash and interior components. This was all explained to me before the work started on my car which made me very comfortable. Also, they were doing work on a certain NBA Basketball Player's Ferrari, plus I had seen Chris's M5, so I completely trusted Top Stitch to do the work.

They also do custom floor mats which are more than twice as thick than the BMW Factory mats. They can do any custom logo or lettering that you want too. I have two English Bulldogs and love the bulldog logo, so on the mats they went. They color matched the logo as well and they turned out very nice. A great addition to finish off the interior IMO.

In summary, I would HIGHLY recommend Top Stitch to anyone that wants to get any interior upholstery upgrades installed. They specialize in custom interiors, so use your imagination and they can make it happen. If you need your car picked up and delivered, they can do that too!

My interior is now complete thanks to Top Stitch!


Very Special THANKS to:
  • Anthony at Top Stitch and his Crew
  • Chris at MFest



Other Interior Items:
  • Matte Silver Carbon Fiber - MA Carbon
  • Lamborghini Black Pearl center and cupholder surrounds - IND Distribution
  • BMW Performance Wheel - BMW

Congrats bradah Larry



Was planning on keeping The E60 M5 "as is" but after seeing Larry's interior and Constantin Kim and I said to each other its absolute mod and were going to do it on the E60 and after talking to Larry saying "we spent most of the time inside the car so why not make it more comfy and customize it to OUR needs" I was like that is very true and made a whole lot of sense

Funny thing is all of the E9x M3 guys that signed up on the group buy all have the BMW performance steering wheel, Anthony@topstitch thought it was standard on the cars and was when i told him their aftermarket from BMW

Thanks again for your help Chris to make this happen. Anthony and Top Stitch are amazing! They have some serious projects going on there. Can't wait to see the E60 M5 when Top Stitch has completed their magic!

I wanted to sleep in the car this last nite, b/c I love the interior so much now, haha!
