Well I got the parts back on Saturday and installed them into the car... and... well... I didn't like it. The silver color, even tho it was really close to the aluminum look, it wasn't perfect and it bothered me to no ends.
Thus, i've gone back to the drawing boards and have decided on having my center console color matched to the Carrera White body color (excuse the iPhone photo).
The other parts that were painted silver are being replaced with standard black parts. Parts have been ordered and should all be here this week.
I know its a costly decision, but, in my book, if it's not right, its not right.
Cheers
Mark
