Piano Black Solution
#16
Yeah, it's tough being a guinea pig. I am considering this, though. The center console is a high-traffic touch point. The rest of the gloss black in the interior is somewhat acceptable.

Anyone try them yet?

Not a decal
The guys at the dealership and the guys at my tire shop all lines the way this looks compared to the original piano black look.
Don't really have a photo before I installed the covers as the covers were one of the first "mods" that I did right after taking delivery of the car. But if you look below and compare to the photos above, covers >> piano black

Would like to match the black wood grain on the door panels. This looks slightly lighter. Is this the same as this black wood panel pieces on eBay?

Still shiny plastic looks... well shiny. I guess it is a little better than a piano black shiny, but still meeeh. There are other options out there, like matte black cover, or other wood grain looking covers like I got ;-) AliExpress has plenty of options, 90% of them are carbon fiber though lol but there are few other options you can find on Ebay and on the AliExpress.
