Without it your horn won't work.
Cool. Now for a black shift boot, black carpets etc... You're not going to be able to stop... . How's the steering feel?

Steering feel is great, I love it.
This winter I am painting the PCM and AC unit black.
Shifter and handbrake I am not sure yet, need more time to think about that.
There are days I am all for it, than I am hesitating again. Need to be 100% sure before I fork out an other €1000. Because if I am going black I need the front center piece too and, more important, I would want the Alloy tequipment parts.
Carpets definitely not, they are perfect as they are.

I would advice you too to change to a black steering wheel, a red interior with black steering wheel looks much better imo.

how about an avatar change Denis?
Carpets you can leave as they are, mats I had a dark set from my 4s which I use in the winter, and leave the nat brown for the summer. I would go for black mats.
Yes on the PCM and AC controls, but yes on the other silver bits in the car as well... AC vents surround. I can see the long stripe to remain in alloy...
Yes on the stripe under the shifter as well, and the tip of the handbrake from silver to black...
Oh and door handles.

As soon as I have taken a decent picture I'll do that. But first I have to get around to install these : http://www.suncoastparts.com/product...e=997tt_silver
Have them since a few weeks now.

And these : http://www.suncoastparts.com/product...T_ExteriorTRIM

I do not want to have much black. The galvano silver parts have to stay all, they match the rear center console perfectly. It's only the things I touch (steering, gear lever and handbrake) I like in black. And as I said, not sure yet on the lever and brake.

The PCM in vulcan grey is ugly so that needs to go, nothing to do with the rest but satin black will make it like it should have been from the start.

Mats I have already in black btw, you can just see them in my last photo.
