How much would it cost to upholster a 1996 BMW 3 series?

I was wondering how much it would cost to change the upholstery like the carpet and the headliner and the doors, I would do the seats much later... or if there are kits for that maybe I could have someone do. I don't know if color matters in terms of price but it's going to be black. Thanks.How much would it cost to upholster a 1996 BMW 3 series?I had my headliner in my '96 318ti done for about $150, it came out like new, no kidding. Guy did a great job with material that was exactly like the original. Made the car look almost new again inside, Im so happy with the work. The sunroof part I just cleaned with some special cleaner carefully and it looks great.



The carpet may be more as it may have to be the exact molded type and you have to remove a lot like seats, center consoles, etc. That may run up a bit. Why do you want to change the carpet? Torn excessively? Really worn out?



If its just dirty have it fully detailed and shampoo'd at a pro detail place. May take about a day but much better than just replacing which could be expensive and unnecessary.



Also, I advise not to go black in the headliner, I know thats what the tuners/ricers do but it will make you interior darker, maybe too dark.



There is a reason its that lighter grey, thats just not boring interior color, has to do with making your interior better for visibility in some way. There's some thought into a lot of the details in BMWs.How much would it cost to upholster a 1996 BMW 3 series?Everything, Leather, headliner carpet....low end $6,000How much would it cost to upholster a 1996 BMW 3 series?6k
