Yeh, I've got the same interior with the brushed silver piece which came with the car when I brought it used.

I drilled a hole into it to put my AIM lap timer in the car though (because track car).

The only pics I've got of it are below, I can take another one if you want:

Hi Rob,

As another interior option is to reduce the amount of tan (if that tickles your fancy) by substituting the centre console with a black one. :?:

Definitely looks better. I wish mine was colored like the club edition they have in the US. I'll prob never change it though.

That last photo with the piano-black panel and black console would be the way to go for me, but I'm 63 and fairly conservative in my taste in most things.
I tend to go for 'classy' rather than 'trendy' and that picture looks really good even though I wouldn't normally be a fan of tan trim.

the satin silver matches are the other satin silver pieces inside the car. the gloss black matches nothing.

No problems, I've put the picture below for you.

It's not painted and is one of the aftermarket brushed metal ones. Since it isn't shiny I think it works pretty well with the interior (I'd prefer a black interior to be honest but the price was right when I brought the car so brown it is).
