I have a GS430 in Merc. Metallic with Ash/Black Bird’s-Eye Maple for about 3 weeks. Wouldn't change anything except for the mats. They're too light and getting dirty faster than expected . Getting black mats to replace the Grey. IMHO the black mats looks just as good in the car too .

What's the concern ? It looks great in bright light (outstanding grain detail) in the center and good contrast aganist the grey in other places/lighting conditions. IMO, it doesn't do much on the steering wheel because it doesn't contrast much aganist the black leather. I would have prefered an all leather wrapped wheel instead for this "sports" sedan. Overall I still like it . Don't know how I'll feel in the summer with the sun backing down on the black maple. Just got to get my driving gloves on.....
