I'd consider just wrapping it tbh or as we did with Sanj's and get it colour coded to the car (personally think its a nice touch - colour dependant of course).

Just phoned Wicked for an idea on cost and they reckon roughly £250 plus vat and carriage.

Would think a bodyshop would charge less than that to get the "Piano Black" finish

I'll get some up asap. Car's been into the shop and now has some lacquer dust on it which I've not got round to removing. Quick polish and I'll get the pics up. Try for you tonight.

Mine are grey met like the outside of the car. Works well to breakup the sea of black plus better than the OEM silvers.

My new bodyshop contact is as good should you need a second option.

Just won a nice set of cosmos high black aka piano black interior trim on ebay! Any tips on fitting/removing the old trim?

Very happy! Just need to find a buyer for my light wood trim now!

Nice one, Cosmos Black is rare to come by. Hopes its not too badly scratched. Have you considered painting your light wood trim to aid resale?
