Piano black would look sick. Although I've always been a fan of the aluminum or silver look.

That's a tough decision. I had thought I would like the aluminum trim but in pictures, it seems so plain. I've yet to see it in real life.

I really like carbon fiber and was considering switching my maple anthracite trim but like I said above, the maple anthracite trim, for those that haven't seen it, is black and grey not wood color, so it has the same color scheme as carbon fiber.

That said, if I was to pick from scratch, I'd go with black carbon fiber, silver carbon fiber and then maple anthracite, in that order....on black leather interior.

Really?? Do you have to send your old trim in like with a lot of people?

Have you got the details, I would definitely have a go with that?
