Default Club leather truffle and matt carbon fiber trim

I'm putting together a TTS cab build, and my SA is questioning my choice of the truffle interior combined with the standard matt carbon fiber inlays. I'm trying to break up the interior a bit, and though this combo should look fine, though perhaps more people select the wood with truffle.

Does anyone have this combo, or thoughts on it? Thanks

I'm doing CF and Truffle. I think it's a good look.

I think wood trim would end up having too much brown in the interior.

That was my thought as well

I would go wood or leather trim with the Brown...both have an aluminum border to break things up a little. If you go with carbon fiber though, and you don't like it, it's not a huge expense to change the trim pieces out.

The brushed aluminum would match well with truffle, but I don't see a problem with the carbon

I think CF would be nice with any interior color choice.

I couldn’t find a truffle pic with cf, one with that grey pattern trim and another truffle thread.

Finally got a chance to see the truffle color swatch at my dealer today. Much darker than I expected, and not at all like the pictures I've seen. I think I have to see it in person now. Can anyone comment on how truffle looks in person compared to the typical dealer swatch?

I've seen/sat in multiple cars with truffle and find the pics you see on here rather accurate (look at the owners post pics of your new 992 thread today for a good example). A small swatch will look darker than the full interior with light on it. BUT... its a very dark brown. I wish they had a good saddle brown option personally but the truffle looks great in person
