Love the porto done as well Matt!! It's not mine... Any thoughts on Snotts green? Green or silver to lighten it up a bit?? Either... both would look great. If you have tan leather, how about trimming it in tan leather to match?

tried trimming my center console in leather, absolute nightmare. the thickness of the leather stops all the fixtures that attach behind from fitting correctly, and the six 'hazard' buttons no longer fit in their apertures either, even after loads of filing down etc, the aircon buttons were almost impossible to sort. it just didnt look neat enought in the end, I was mighty miffed !

I think the Scotts green on green looks best as it`s quite a dark colour anyway and not as over powering like the sprinty and speed red ones. Not really a fan of the silver consoles with bright coloured dash strips,just looks wrong IMHO . Baz

I really liked the yellow with gloss black, and the titanium one, i didnt realise that 16v had different console areas, they seem to mould together better than the 20vt, coz i like the speed red centre console (not the red, but the way its all as one) dont take offence speed red owners

Looks Great in Gloss Black. My console looks terible with the rubber finish. How easy is it to remove the console, does it just unclip?
