Thanks, could not decide because not too many chalk GT4/GTS around, could not see those in person. Thinking to get shark blue seat belt with chalk exterior but it may look odd with silver stitching

I like Shark Blue, but if there is no other blue to tie it to it would look out of place on just the belts.

TIA
I kept my interior trim in Chalk and I do like it. I'm not a huge fan of carbon, although a little here or there does look great to me. No regrets.

Can also add Shark Blue Door Pulls. Thought about doing it on my car but not sure how it would work on Gentian Blue, quite different shades of blue.

Was originally settled on Shark Blue, but had a rethink to a more classical look for my GTS 4.0: http://www.porsche-code.com/PPXTDZY4. Thoughts?


Also anyone select the below?

Default DNA

A classic and a modern classic both in Chalk, maybe there is something to this DNA thing?

Outstanding. However, if I could have configured my Spyder with that interior and Aurum wheels I would have.

I really am starting to feel like I want Chalk to be discontinued across the board. Way too many of them out there right now. Local dealer had eight new vehicles waiting to be delivered to customers the other day. Six were chalk.

Chalk will fade away eventually. White will not.
