Awesome, thanks. That's the part number I have for the ones I bought.

No, you can't polish that crap. Will get new trim custom made.

I was planning to try to put a clear resin or something over it. Let me know if you are able to have the custom work done; I may be interested.

Don't think that will work. So far, two options Dinmann and DB Carbon. Trying to check it how much the trim prices will run. I went different on the car and got polished black trim. It's not bad, but yes it does show every speck of dust.

I've found these to work like magic on dust in the cabin and especially the trim and displays, etc.

Beyond light dusting and cleaning, also let me know if you need any tips on how best to crochet a tea cozy.

Bought it!

LBB, Exec w/ Black wheels and decided to give DCT a go this time around. Hope I don't regret that decision, but there will always be some sort of trade-offs.

Yep. I drove it when it had 15 miles on it and decided to pass. The more I researched DCT, it seemed previous manual drivers weren't TOO regretful going that direction. Time will tell...

So... back to my soapbox about tinting...

Here are details and pics.

1. Nano-ceramic film
2. 80% on front windshield
3. 50% on driver's side and passenger side front windows
4. 20% on rear 3 windows

I think it really contrasts well with HS. Also, keeps the cabin much cooler!

Tint looks amazing but that painted muffler makes a huge difference! You did a great job

Ha! Yes, I do. Come on, man, cut me some slack! Until this car and this forum, I didn't know or care about any of this stuff... but guess what's going into my Amazon cart next?

Man, funny what love will do to you. I love this car so much, here's what's happened, that's NEVER happened until the M2C:

1. I've hand-washed a car for the first time in 20+ years. The last time I washed a car was probably as a junior in high school, for a fund-raiser. (And, BlkSVT , before you inevitably ask, no, I wasn't wearing a bikini like in "Bring It On")

2. As a mechanically challenged Asian, I learned how to pry open my center console, broken apart some gadget that isn't meant to be broken apart like that, to replace the bottom bracket on the wireless charger to fit the iPhone XS Max. I even learned how to put together different nuts and bolts and used screw drivers and hex wrenches to put on a tow hook license plate mount. It's like I'm overcoming my Asian handicap!

3. I vacuum'ed the inside of the car. I have never vacuumed a car. In college, I borrowed my cousin's Supra for a week, and after I returned it, he just turned away disgusted and wouldn't talk to me. Later, my aunt told me, "You know, when you use someone else's car for a week, you don't leave wrappers everywhere, and if you eat chips like a pig, you vacuum up the crumbs."

Damn, I love this car!

Lol...I've leased my last like 10 cars; maybe more? ...so I didn't wash/vacuum any of them either. (But I'm a clean person...I don't eat or drink in my cars, so they don't tend to get dirty in the first place.)

And I'm so not mechanical either...which I hate because I feel like I'm always getting screwed over with labor!
