Interior options - need opinions

Gents - Silver fiber trim or traditional dark carbon fiber trim; which would you go with and why?

Dark without a doubt, the light one looks really tacky and out of place.

2015 C300 4MATIC Sport
I would go with the dark... there is enough aluminum on the door panels in that model, steering wheel, and trim around the dash and console.

Just my opinion, but I think the dark is "classier" and "sporty" at the same time.

I just took delivery of my black C300 4MATIC with the sport package (2015), but I'm glad I went with the open pore black ash over the glossy black or lindenwood trims... at first I was worried it would make the cabin too dark, but it looks so good!

Enjoy! So jealous!

3 for 3, and 4 for 4 if you count my girlfriend. Guess that settles it...

Dark for sure, it is a little bit tacky when there is just too much silver going on considering the door panels are silver already.
