@CWRS60Spyder - I see you have the original factory cell phone cradle. Here's what I did with mine...

Here is what I did with mine. It cost about $60 for supplies and took 2 days. I also painted the ignition and hazard rosettes, and the surrounds for the seat controls.
I didn't want to go over the top. I just wanted a little contrast to break up all the gray.

Three Wheelin'
My interior is metropol blue without full leather. My upgraded alum/leather shifter and ebrake came from the factory. I'm going alumna look for the center console, door pocket lids and the horseshoe. Should break things up.

randy, that alcantera job looks nice. Where did you find the 40AE wheels?
As far as interior mods, only one I would recommend would be Euro GT3 seats for sure. I haven't seen those carbon knock-offs. They look awesome though. Original Porsche ones would be tough to find in grey.
You've been to the bumper plugs website I'm assuming since you mentioned the smokerless center console. I'm not a huge fan of interior mods but I'm spoiled by full leather 40AE interior. You also already have a 3-spoke wheel so not a lot of room for improvement there either. Your leather all looks well taken care of; normally grey shows dirt and wear badly.

Rotec brand is one of the popular ones for GT3 knock off's. Waiting for FIA ****'s to come in and give their $.02 on knock off seats and safety...5...4...3..2..

I looked at them and heard what the ****'s say. Since I track I am planning to go with some Recaro pole positions, which I could find a some GT3 euro seats but they are getting hard to find locally.

My $.02: all the ****'s b&tch about the seat itself (which mind you, is CF instead of the OEM fiberglass), but no one complains about using whatever seats rails you can find. And last I check, the seat belt buckle attaches to the seat rails.

went with the maxspeed GT3 "knock off" seats on my car.

But I have to tell ya that I will only eat "organic" bananas. Lol. J/K

Here is mine. I would love a set of sport seats to paint the backs blue, but seems unlikely I can find a set in grey with the heating element and fully adjustable. I am thinking though of blue seat belts and painting the vent slats blue and dash bars blue. I like the CF look, but would rather not drop that much cash into a non performance based mod. I got the wood brake and shifter at a steal so couldn't resist and think they look good. I would not put any more wood pieces in the car. Some how the brake and shifter is ok. One thing to point out is that the weighted turbo shifter feels amazing compared to the weighted 996 and 986 shifters.
I somewhat like that alcantara look, but need to see it in person. I also wonder how it wears. That black and silver interior looks great too. BTW the pioneer nav is very easy to install. Just take your time. You will need a dremel to modify the housing, but its not a difficult install. I will be installing a z140 or 150 soon in my 996TT.
