Has anyone seen and aluminum and alcantara e-brake handle? I have the silver performance BMW shifter and was thinking that a matching e-brake handle would match it nicely.

I looked around on bimmian and khoalty, etc and saw regular aluminum handles but none with alcantara.

I found it's a BMW performance part but only for the newer models. Any idea if it will work on the ZHP? http://www.shopbmwusa.com/ProductDetail.aspx?CategoryType=Accessories&ProductId=2568&perf=true

I have the BMW performance handle with Alcantara. Do what Hermes did as the Alcantara will not match.

I bought mine through dealership, (Shift knob does not have white stitching, as brake handle has white stitching). Depending on how anal about it you want to be about it.

If I had to do mine over again, I would have bought alcantara through Coby, then purchased brake and shift knob threw somewhere else. Only to match everything up

The blacks on the handle and my boots are close but not exactly the same. There is a matching shifter boot for the package, brake comes with one already, but I wanted ///M stitching, not white. Unless you really look at it you can't tell
