Keep it...I did! Makes your car a little distinctive. Not like it's the dash or anything.

If you don't, the e-brake and shift **** should be the same, I think, and definitely not black. Isn't your shifter boot Cashmere? That would be weird.

I'd say suspension is the best updgrade. It's not like anyone's gonna confuse our cars for Jaguars.

I have a black shifter, e-brake and center console waiting to be installed in my cashmere interior. I actually like the 2-tone look and am planning on changing the carpet to black at some point too, but black mats will have to do for now.

Default shift ****

I've had a stock Flamenco Red leather, a Carnewal-suppplied carbon fiber, and now the wood shifter ***** in my 993s and, frankly, I prefer the wood the best! Now, the wood 4 spoke steering wheel in Flamenco Red...well, that's a different story.
