Here are the before and after pics for my Mamba Green Taycan. The SC bezel adds a nice pop to compliment my interior trim and steering wheel stripe.

Thanks again.
If you posted that on other forums, I have a hunch I'd be painting a lot of Mamba Green in the next few weeks. How is that not a factory option? Almost makes me wonder if we'll see Porsche offer it in the future. Makes at least as much sense as painted vent slats...

How is the paint match? The green on the inside of the door looks a little lighter, or is that just the lighting? For that matter, how close is the match on the factory's interior bits vs. the exterior paint. I've seen some in the past (not in Mamba) that are actually great matches....

The lighting was a bit tricky this morning. I shot everything with my cellphone. Unfortunately, I didn't have a chance to pull out my real camera and lens (Nikon D5). The bezel is a great color match with the interior factory Mamba Green trim, which in turn is a perfect match with the exterior paint. As you experienced, Mamba Green is a good color to work with. Even my factory key in Mamba matches with tons of metallic flake.

I hope you have lots of Mamba Green paint on hand. I posted on taycanforum.com :thumbup:

Hi Wem, the steering wheel stripe as that from factory or it’s a vinyl wrap?

It's a diy vinyl wrap. I have a posting under the Taycan section of carpokes with details.

It's weird how grey those look in pictures. In real life the are a metallic silver/aluminum with a nice sparkle. Makes me wonder if I should add a clear gloss to the silver?
