G63 interior trim trade wanted: light poplar for piano black

I have light popular on a white truck and I'm thinking about changing it to piano black. Does anyone want to trade trim? Mine is in perfect shape - no issues at all.

My truck is white with black leather. I don't think I want to cover it in leather - I like having another material in the cabin. Does anyone know how to remove the trim??

How about suede/alcantara. When my G63 comes Im considering wrapping it in vinyl and sending the interior trim off to a mates shop to get it carbon fibered.

So you prefer piano black to this color trim?


FYI: I've ordered mine with piano black.

That's not bad either. I just want to get my hands on something that goes with the white exterior better than what I have. My trim would look killer on a black/black car. Just not crazy about it on a white/black car.

So you are going to order another set of trim? One set with vinyl and one with CF?

Oh I meant im sending my car to get wrappe din a different colour if I end up not liking magnatite black.

Would have to see the procedure in and cost involved in getting a new trim. My current trim is in Piano black (black on black on black). So if i decide to get a new trim to cover mine when it's in the shop I can sell u mine or u can wait to see if it's feasible to do cf trim and buy from my friend.

But I don't think my car is coming this year, most prob Jan 2013, it's scheduled for october build.

Can't your dealer order the trim parts you want? All they need is the VIN number of a G63 with CF interior and they can look up the parts you need.
