Carbon Fiber console change

Carbon Fiber console change
Been an owner for 4 years but new to the Forums.
I have a 2017 C43 that came with the Ash wood center console. I would like to change it to Carbon Fiber. I’m cautious with buying an aftermarket part and would prefer to get an MB replacement for the best fit and finish. I’ve seen prices from $930 to $2400 from various MB Parts webpages and they all are a different part number. I have struggled to get anyone to verify which of the various part numbers are correct for my car. My car has the dash clock which I believe was standard on all AMG’s. Has anyone done this yet that can give me an idea of which dash part number they used? Also, were you able to do the install or should I go to a dealership? If it matters I’m in the USA.
Thanks in advance.

There are multiple options. Replacing the part, using an trim overlay, or having it wrapped.
Here's a thread with some decent info: https://mbworld.org/forums/c-class-w...k-console.html
also, for aftermarket

Here's a video of the result of someone using the overlay:
His EBay link is the wrong part, but there are correct parts in the recommended links below it.
As for wraps, there are some examples in the first link I gave. Lots of options.

MBWorld Fanatic!
That "weave" in the overlay is super uneven and wavy. Would drive me crazy.
