Updating my interior....what to do with the damm ebrake?!
so im trying to "update" my interior in the C4S and the all black is just not cutting it.
i yanked all the interior pannels out and am getting some match painted to the cars color, wrapping all the leather pieces in suede or alcantara to match the headliner, doing a system (1 10in custom sub, alpine w200 in the dash, audison amps), ssk, new shift ****, and new floor mats.
but my question to you all is what to do with the damm ebrake?! i dont want to "replace" the entire shifter as i have seen but just the handle, like half? i replaced the one in my M3 to a ACS and kinda want to do it with this one. are or what options do we have?
thanks again, ill post pics soon!! (but why should i, cus as i have and you prob have too, everyone is BUYING DAMM C4S in artic silver!!!!
)

A buddy of mine just saw a C4S cab for sale the other day, black/black/black. Didn't see how much though.
My car is a sea of grey on the interior and I'm looking to splash it up too. Ordered some new floor mats that say PORSCHE 911, the Porsche is in black, the 911 is script and matches the exterior of the car. Thinking of painting the center console too and then doing a little aluma look here and there.
Maybe think of the aluma ebrake. Carbon fiber is still dark enough that it wouldn't discern from the other black areas, but aluma would.
