Did you mean to say that's gloss black on your window trim?
Yes, my apologies. I did intend to reference window trim.

Not a bunch of $$$ either. The 911 emblem definitely stands out more in the gloss black, the standard silver on IGM almost gets lost....and yes leave the "Porsche" in the standard silver. Re-look at the pics of my rear end for reference.

I agree 100%!
Thank you, thank you!!! I did consider that I may not like the look of mixing the gloss with the matte. ...thanks for reiterating that point. Also, noted your common regarding the rear 911.

Nice config! Some suggestions:
Exterior
- Exterior Mirror Lower Trim in Exterior Color and Base in High Gloss Black
- Tailpipes in black
Interior
- Would go for Black leather with chalk stitching or Deviated Stitching Interior Package. I find that the light interior is easier to get smudged (eg. by clothing).
Kept thinking about your suggestion... I changed to the leather interior in black with chalk stitching after seeing the chalk and thinking about longevity. Maybe wouldn't have considered that change without the suggestion - so Thank You!

I have had color transfer on a light interior- so I always do dark interiors now- and you can never go wrong with black. The chalk stitching will be nice and will tie in everything on the car. Congratulations!

Just ceramic coat your seats and you will never again have to worry about spills or color transfer.
Wish I would have found a lady like this one when I was a little younger:-)
great build; think you are about done. Lot of great opinions and great decisions on your part imo.
Enjoy!

Those of us with lighter color interior report no color transfer. Just like black, it should be cleaned and conditioned but that’s about it.
and
Your build is unique and classy, everybody and their mother has a black interior. Switch it back to what you had
