Purpose and compatibility

The presented armrest is a component from the Centre consoles and roof consoles group, dedicated to BMW F-series models from the M3 and M4 family (F80, F82, F83). The design has been developed for factory mounting points in the centre tunnel, which facilitates installation and ensures proper fitment with other interior panels. As a result, the part can be used both when replacing a worn-out element and when restoring the original interior configuration after modifications.

Materials and finish

The armrest is made of high-quality Merino leather in Sakhir Orange, characteristic of BMW M sports versions. The natural texture of the leather and its pleasant-to-touch surface improve perceived comfort in daily use, while simultaneously emphasizing the sporty and luxurious character of the cabin. The orange finish creates a cohesive whole with the seats and other upholstery elements in the same shade, which is important for maintaining a uniform interior aesthetic.

Function in the centre console

The armrest serves as an ergonomic support for the driver’s and passenger’s forearm, stabilizing the hand position on longer routes and during dynamic driving. As an integral part of the centre console, it influences:

• comfort of operating the gear lever and controlling vehicle systems,
• the impression of consistency and quality of the entire centre tunnel zone,
• perceived ergonomics of the driver’s area in M sports models.

Thanks to the factory geometry and appropriately selected support height, the armrest supports a natural seating position, which is important during intensive vehicle use.

Condition and use in restoration projects

The item is offered in used condition, which makes it an attractive solution for interior restoration or returning the car to a specification close to factory, while maintaining reasonable costs. A used OEM armrest allows you to maintain the original look and character of the cabin while reducing expenses compared to purchasing a new component. It is a practical choice for projects where compliance with factory specifications and the preservation of original BMW materials are important.

Benefits of using an original BMW component

Using an original BMW armrest in Merino Sakhir Orange leather provides:

• factory fitment to the centre console of F80 M3 / F82 F83 M4 models,
• colour consistency with other upholstery elements in the orange shade,
• preservation of the interior character typical of M versions, without the need to use replacements.

For users who are planning a more extensive modernization of the centre tunnel zone, such an element constitutes a solid base for further work, e.g., replacing other panels or refreshing the upholstery.
