Which do you like better?

with the black on black, I'd go aluminum. The carbon just looks a little too busy with our interiors.

now on a lighter interior (like my almond) the wood looks way more appropriate than the aluminum.

Let me know if anyone is interested in doing a goup buy of any brabus products.

I'm interested in getting their silver carbon fiber kit (if the price is right)

I spoke to a brabus rep and they will get back to me on Monday about pricing of the carbon fiber kit

3 or more sets sold=group buy

The more people we can get, the more the discount

The factory wood is rich enough looking. The dark carbon fiber is attractive too.

The first pic of the wood trim is godawful. Looks like somebody got a steep discount on stick-on fake wood contact paper that was meant to line kitchen cabinets.

The stock wood trim is much nicer, as several other pointed out.

The stock aluminum is also nice. When we learned that you could not get the wood trim with MB-Tex seats, we were disappointed to learn that we would probably have to get ours with the aluminum trim. However, the dealer located one with the options we wanted, and it had the wood trim with MB-Tex material. Then we were disappointed to learn that we would not be getting the aluminum trim, which by that time we actually liked better than the wood. We pick it up later this week, so I am really excited.

But I did want to point out that despite what the web site says, you can get wood trim with MB-Tex material.

Black carbon fiber would also be nice.
