1) based on the configurator the covers are all black so if you have light carpet then consider spending the small sum to fix that, or
2) wait until MaCarbon are doing them in carbon fiber - i had that piece for my 987 and swapped it to the 997 turbo. didn't see it much, but it was nice when i took the effort.

IMHO, Porsche should just cover them in carpet! They're an eyesore. I have a luxor beige interior and the covers are a strange taupe brown that really sticks out like a sore thumb. I wish I had ordered the fuse box covers in leather, at least it would look more "classy." Trying to get them aftermarket is proving to be a bear.
Anyone have any solutions that worked? Anybody successfully carpet these? If so, where do you get the carpet?

I would think that on a darker interior like black or espresso you wouldn't need the leather covers aesthetically as they won't stand out too much.
On a light interior like luxor beige, platinum or pebble grey the large black fuse cover will stand out more and the leather cover might make more sense.
