Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

As we all know the matt black painted finish on the standard console is very prone to wear and tear so I'm looking for options to clean it up. Ive already got a quote to spray it up here but wi my car coming to Sydney in 6 months I was hoping there was a recommendation for getting it leather trimmed like the factory premium version. Anyone have experience or a recommendation?

POST 2Original post

I remember having mine rubbed down and hit with two pack Artic Silver and a couple coats of clear... Really looked the business and freshened the interior up...

POST 3Original post

my console in the Cayman is looking pretty tatty too... i found a second hand one from an American car (it has the passenger airbag warning light). My plan was to have a go at stripping it, then getting it covered in Alcantara... what do you think?

POST 4Original post

I asked m detailer about repairing or repainting mine last week. He said to talk to the guys that look after interior leather on cars as they do this type of work apparently but I haven't done anything about it yet to verify.

POST 5Original post

Mine is painted Terracotta color and is a bit rough in a few spots. Some of the parts I can replace with new Porsche pieces but other trim bits will need painting. Given the color, I wonder how accurate it can be replicated. You can just see the discolouration on the steering wheel here, I'll start by getting this painted and will see how it turns out.
