    CF the rest of the plastic bits

    I have the Carbon Sigma interior option but hate the grey plastic radio surround), So I have ordered all the rest of the plastic bits in CF from the German CF specialist (handbrake, centre console, ash tray cover, air vents, window switch surrounds, and last but not least that cheapo radio surround), will post pics when I have them to show, and report on fitting and quality.
    Best Regards, Ian

    Is it possible to order these from Audi, or are they just aftermarket?

    The car, being new to me and never really seeing one for long before to examining it, I am surprised by all the "plastic" they left in the car with the "Enhanced leather" option.

    Now if I were to order again, and if it were a US option, I would do EVERYTHING possible in leather!

    My M6 with "full" leather.....has almost every inch of the car covered with high quality leather. It sort of surprised me that Audi doesn't stress the fact that their "Enhanced leather" is not FULL leather. I wish I paid more attention when ordering.....I might have spent extra for optional "FULL" leather!!!!!

    I agree. Extended leather in Mercedes pretty much means everything is leather too.

    I considered getting several pieces from MAcarbon to finsih off the CF too. It is nice that they have pretty detailed instructions for several pieces.

    Isn't that the truth - that's where they make all the money! It's easy to add $$$ to that Porsche MSRP.
