The Silver 19" and 20" wheels work well with the Aluminum window trim. Well done

Second this. I love aventurine - has a bit of a vintage vibe to it. Silver plays into that. So many blacked out everything cars these days; nice to see silver wheels / trim.

Default Black leather / aventurine

Anybody do black leather with aventurine? Curious how that looks. Torn between black leather and truffle brown club leather. If I do the latter feels like Im leaning into the vintage vibe vs more modern…and then of course I’ve changed my mind on the dash inlay a million times. Wood looks good but is that too much brown with club leather? Monumental decisions obviously ha.

Any Aventurine owners have the exclusive wheels with red calipers or PCCB's? I'm spec'ing a Targa 4S - Aventurine/Truffle Brown/Carrera Exclusives/Brown targa top. I'm debating getting the PCCB's for a few reasons. one of which is the look of the yellow calipers against the exterior color and brown top.

Has anyone had experience using PPF on Aventurine? It being such a dynamic color, I was wondering if the PPF may dull the effect a bit.

I have (PPF, that is)….and did not notice any effects from the PPF. But I’m sure there is somebody out there that will swear they see a difference.

If you do paint correction, a high quality PPF, and ceramic coating on top, it will look good. I had that done on my AG and was happy with it. Don’t forget to do ceramic on your rims to keep down the brake dust.

I have full Xpel PPF with Xpel Ceramic. It hasn’t dulled the effect enough to notice.

I think in a previous thread, you mentioned you were going agave green stitching on black as well - can't find any pictures online and online config doesn't seen to change for this selection.
Greatly appreciated @c1pher

No such thing as too many pictures of a 911 in my book...
