Anyone paint the wart to match the exterior?

Thank you

Interesting question. Don't think I've ever seen it painted.

Covered mine in vinyl to match the Alu-look interior bits. Bit of a pain...had to use two pieces and seam it down the middle. Easily removable too

Mine's factory black and matches interior. The only change I'd make would be to a carbon fiber housing.

OK, 997 n00b here... What are the warts on the 997? On 993s the front bumperettes are known as warts...

I'd rather draw as little attention to its presence as possible. Mine matches the dash color so I just leave it be.

I'd agree. I have nothing against the wart, but I see no reason to draw attention to it either.

+1.

I had no idea the aversion to it, I don't mind it.
