Looks great
I was gonna get that door handle shroud as well, but my door handle is arctic already, so not sure how it would look. I love the center console in body color though. It sets off the interior, imo.

Looks great... how close is the Arctic to Alumalook?
I really want to do my console, my car has the Alumalook shifter, brake..etc
I am leaning toward body color for the console (seal grey) how do you guys think it will look with the Alumalook?

Just thinking. Wouldn't a painted center console be more susceptible to scratches?

Mine lasted pretty well, but it did get chipped in a couple of places, particularly around the ashtray. I took it out and re-shot it.

This is how your interior would look with a seal gray console against the alumalook shift knob and brake handle. Personally, I think an alumalook console might set off your interior better because the gray against black leather is very subtle whereas the alumalook is more striking a difference. Alumalook is lighter in shade than Arctic, although I think an arctic console would work well for you as well. I got mine from Bumperplugs over a year ago, and the paintwork has held up really well. Not one chip or scratch. It's expensive, but it's a professional job that looks just as good as factory.

Thanks for the pics, being a "subtle" kinda guy I think I like the look of the seal grey with the Alumalook shifter/brake.

I can also say that using asimplechef was a good experience. I used him for my bumperettes and was extremely happy with the results. Especially for the $100 + shipping price.
