Yes James not figuring on changing it anytime soon! It will be 7 years on October 7th, the day of the Sytner meet. Not as long as you I know!
Anne said a year or so back aren't you ready for a change and I said and just what would I change it for?
Last week she said, "I don't think you'll ever sell it!"

You may have just solved a 7 year itch for me! I've never been fond of the brushed aluminium trim in my car, a bit too bright for my taste.
IMO wood doesn't really go in my coupe with titanium paint and black trim although it looked great in my B10.
I thought about Alpina piano black but the cost and stories of how easily it scratches put me right off!

This looks like it may be the solution for me. I've even found a company in Sheffield about 40 miles away from me that do it too, so watch this space!
Go for it Geoff :D

Hi Steve,

I've e mailed M-Tec Dynamics in Sheffield as I'm away on holiday at the moment.
Hoping to hear from them after the weekend and arrange a visit to view next week when I get home.
The parts on the website (Shady's Carbon) look very good but I need to see them in the flesh first.
