Sort of says a lot about the Rennlist 996 subforum that a thread on the rising tide lifting all boats with 996 pricing devolves into argument. Food for thought for those with an appetite.
The absolute unmatched benefit of the collective braintrust here is sometimes lost in the petty bickering and pedantry.

Right and wrong.
While the microscopic “flecks” of darker colors are (very robustly) surface applied, the MY1999 interior accents base material section is indeed “color through”. IE scratches will reveal the same base color & material through the entire depth of the material (albeit without the surface “flecks”).
Thus scratches, which are rare given the material’s intrinsic durability, are virtually invisible on MY1999 interiors.

My 2000 C4 Cab also has manual trunk/engine lid operation and no computer display but has clear lens turn signals and reflectors which I prefer. In fact, one guy contacted me to buy them in response to my sales ad; I refused.
Not sure if I've got soft touch plastic or not; just thought it was all leather. Will have to check. My PSM is alway on, so that's not an issue for me either.

Thats interesting because both Suncoast & Erik @ Bumperplugs have always maintained there’s actually two different versions of the original “Granite” material. Perhaps these correlate with “early” and “late” MY1999 differences as well. I would need both side by side to differentiate.
FWIW my build date is 07/98 and scratches in the “Granite” are virtually invisible.

There you have it: early and late Granite. Boy Weiderking lost zero time sucking every penny from every penny the second after Ferry’s death. UN freaking believable.

Factory fire.
are 4/98 and earlier. The story says that some of the heads were smoked and they polished them and
used them in the built, those have a higher tendency to crack. Jake there is a glacier white 99 in Canada 96,000 miles California rebuilt tittle. I maybe buying that car depending on what the dot here in Texas says about the tittle. They are king of funny on my car they gave me a blue clear tittle for whatever reason they put exempt under the mileage, have to love those government employees.

Edit: actually, wasn’t it in early 2000? Now I forget…
