@718-4Me Very cool mods. Can you please post a link where to buy the OEM GT black inserts? How hard was it to remove the silver ones and install the GT ones?
Thanks,
Larry

I love your CF shift knob + alcantara shift boot. Work so well with the CF panels. Sorry to ask a dumb question, what is DB?

Out of curiosity I was getting ready to ask the same thing and then I took a flyer on search and came up with this which I think is correct:
https://dbcarbon.com
PS - Firefox and Malwarebytes don't like the site but it opens and seems ok at a quick glance. Malwarebytes labels it "compromised".

I got the OEM black inserts from Suncoast and had them dealer installed. Yes on DB Carbon Fiber out of Germany.

Are they the ones with the control buttons for audio volume, voice activation, vehicle settings, etc?

2. Clear side markers
3. P1 bucket seat inserts
4. DB CF shift knob in leather
5. DB CF center and side vents
6. T design memory module
7. T design magnetic phone mount
8. Activated android auto w MIB AIO + Motorola wireless adapter
9. Burmester tweeter swap

Seriously considering Deman gearing swap (2-5).

No, just the plain old GT Alcantara wheel, I personally think the steering wheel should just, a steering wheel.

Thanks for posting that pic.
The CF ducktail and diffuser look great! Are they from DBCarbon or another company? Did you change the ducktail yourself?
Looks like you're in MA. I'm in Lexington. And, yeas, it's rather chilly today.

The duck tail is TWL and the diffusor is DB Carbon Fiber, no I had it done by a very competent local body shop. The days of me working on my cars are well over, except for trim and detailing. I'm in they throws of wanting to add LWBS and custom cushions from Justin Placek (Instagram) in Germany, they are GORGEOUS. Also the RS version of the trunk trim in black. I love the monochromatic look and yes Mass!
