Note: You will need to do permanent modifications to your console to make this work!!!!!!!!
If you are like me and have had a E90 BMW for any length of time you might have asked yourself why did BMW make the worthless cubby into a cup holder. I know you guys with the idrive will be left out on this one but maybe it will help someone. I spent a lot of time and tried many times to get this as close as I could to a factory fit. This will fit into the factory clips console, but it will require trimming the console to fit a proper cup. I modeled this around the Yeti Tumbler and it think it seem to fit mose things well. With something like this you will need to print in a material that can handle the high temperatures of the cars interior. I printed mine in CarbonX which made for a very attractive finish for the BMW interior. I also used support which was a real pain to remove with the CarbonX.
I have included the cup holder file and the template to help scribe the console for cutting.
