Have almond interior with aluminum trim and would prefer to have burl walnut. As I bought a CPO car I had no choice. Pls contact me if you are interested in a trade. Must be from 2012-2014 COUPE.

It would also be dependent on whether the car has memory seats on both side, driver side, or none at all. The little piece in the door panel, that is.

Shortly after buying my car, I replace all the aluminum trim for OEM carbon fiber pieces, for the hefty price tag of $2600 from an online wholesale dealer. To change all the trim to walnut would probably be around 500-600

Thx for drawing attention to door panels. My C250 COUPE is standard issue. Drivers side has memory seat controls. Pass side doesn't.
Where did you get the $500-$600 cost for burl walnut?

go to this website: www.epc.startekinfo.com

To find all part numbers for the car, just go to filter and deselect the options and then you have all the part numbers available.

'13 C250 coupe & Porsche 911
I have a 2013 C250 coupe w. tan interior and I'm seriously thinking of changing the aluminum trim to the ash olive matte wood, but I have (2) questions:

- Where did the $500 - $600 price mentioned above come from? The best on-line prices I see for the parts total $800 - $850 whether it's the shiny wood or the matte.

- Two of the parts (the ash try lid and one of the door panels) is NLA (discontinued, supposedly) in the ash olive wood no matter which sites I go to. Is this temporary?
