Thanks Ban,

Looks very nice, he has the sportpackage with dark instruments (fuel,clock and coolingtemp)i have silver ones i,m afraid it will be a little to much silver.

Hmmm, i,m now thinking to put some alu-accents on the console. Somewhere on the web i,ve seen these alu-rings that you can place on the airco-, fanspeed- and flowpositionknob. Hey another knob topic here!! http://www.alfaowner.com/forum/ubb/icons/icon1.gif And off course some leather for the gearshift and handbrake.

You,ve got me confused Wishrute, when i bought my 156 i didn,t want a kevlar or titanium console.But i must say that titanium would indeed look good. http://www.alfaowner.com/forum/ubb/icons/icon9.gif

Check out Unicorse website for those aluminum rings. They are also available from one or two other companies in Japan. I can't remember their names.
