Looking for painted trim pictures
I am working on a Chalk 992 TTS build (posting here as it gets more activity). I'll be going with a lightweight package and to break the very dark cabin, considering racing yellow deviated stitching (but not the extended dash/door leather). To complement that, I was thinking of using the interior trim painted in exterior color as well as the A/C vents being painted exterior color. So the cabin would have racing yellow dials, stitching, belts, and chalk trim and chalk A/C vents (and the center vent has its surround racing yellow stitching). I wasn't able to find a lot of pictures of how this trim looks like in real life and if people who opted for it still like it.
I don't want to go with the CF trim because A) its matte finish does not match the gloss bucket seat finish and B) it darkens the already pretty dark cabin. I am also considering the brushed aluminum trim but for some reason that trim looks too "standard" to my eyes (perhaps because it is available in many other brands as a no cost option whereas the exterior color painted trim is very unique).
Edit : Here is my build :

This is the only car I could find that has what I am looking for, but the video is very short and there is a lot of sunlight. I wish I could find the VIN number of the car so I could see its stock pictures but wasn't able to do that.

Not the color you seek (mine is aventurine green, Iceland green/black). I'm glad I chose it and wish there were more of it. I would like to have it around the shift lever and seat heat/cooling buttons.

Thank you for these close ups. Exactly what I was looking for. Looks like its a glossy finish thats similar to the piano black trim finish so it looks pretty uniform.
