Default Black PDK Paddles and Airbag Cover

I do my best to remove all faux metallic trim on my car.

I noticed the GT4RS has black PDK shifter paddles and black trim on the airbag cove. Anybody know the best way to swap this stuff over to the 991? I presume just like the Weissach carbon fiber paddles, they can't be purchased separately; only come with a complete steering wheel? And the airbag cover isn't just a cover but part of the airbag itself? So would need to purchase the GT4RS airbag assembly?

I could always remove the metallic shifters from my car and paint them matte black, but wondering if the 4RS ones are available somewhere.

Thanks to Bob, this is a more economical endeavour to get everything black.

I'm missing this last piece to de-chrome as much as possible like you.

Well there ya go, thank you! Great minds think alike.

Seems like Porsche is also moving toward a murdered-out look with the GT4RS. That's how these cars should all have been in the first place.

I ordered the black JCR paddles as well. But truthfully, I don't need longer paddles. I just wanted black ones. I could very well just remove the stock paddles and paint them or powder coat them.
