991.2 carbon non multifunction. I'm also in the process of adding some black to the sand. Really want black radio/ac bezels, air vents, and carbon cup holder trim. Just dollars...

Looking good! I want that wheel minus the carbon. Have you considered black gauges?

My before and after photos. Went with espresso sport design wheel, matches my espresso floor mats and offsets the sand beige.

Momo Mod.07 350mm. Leather wrapped. Doesn't exactly match my sea blue interior but that's the problem with having sea blue interior. Pardon my dirty floor mats! Really makes the car feel more lively and my stock wheel was trashed/had a stupid steering wheel cover sewn onto it.

alcantara sand beige is quite courageous. That feels like wearing khaki pants and a white shirt going to a bbq dinner.

Haha. Hasn’t been an issue and I’ve had it for 4 years now. It’s still in great shape. Alcantara cleaner and a brush can remove light dirt and oil from hands. I have a plastic shower cap-like cover for whenever it’s serviced. My mechanic actually gave it to me and puts it on all the cars he services that have alcantara steering wheels.

To all the sand beige owners, I went through the same thing when I bought my car. It had full beige, but basalt console and deviating black carpet. Would have loved a true two tone dash etc., but came up with my own rendition.

I added: black wheel, shift ****, banana trim painted in basalt, console lid black, ebrake, shift trim painted in basalt, and console side panels in black.

Here is a thread about it:
