    That rocks! I think you may just have convinced me of my next colour combo.

    Must get that order in for a facelift...

    Nice that the PCM panel can now be ordered in different colors.

    I personally would have chosen it in black to make that excessive buttonage disappear.

    the 2 tone dash is a very nice touch. Otherwise the terracotta is to just too much.

    Nice! I love the black center console and the rear section of the seats! Makes it looks like the black piano wood finish in the RR Phantom

    What do you think of making the PCM panel and everything else between the seats black leather (center and rear console).

    What does you mean? In leather or painted? This PCM has a leather cover.

    Or painted like this?

    Is that a factory option for the painted PCM cover?

    Thanks KF! Niiiiiice. Though I would like it even more if it were the matt finish of the switches (IOW, not shiney).

    I would choose painted, just look at our wooden kitchen cabinets (and my wife's fingernails) near the handles. Leather seems like it would be taking a chance of premature (ugly) wear and tear.

    Hey Atomic80, how expensive? I'm "thinking" of retrofitting... .

    Loooove the look, the way the buttons are downplayed and the off-center screen kinda doesn't "shout" at you as much.

    Thanks guys.
