This is my car's 'twin' and I have exactly the same 'dark myrtle' wood trim and 'plain' platinum door inserts, just like this one.

And, although the leather seats are 'silver grey' on this FE model, the build sticker says they're platinum!

And the door inserts I have at the paint shop are the same as these proposed replacements too.

On cars that have 'wood' trimon the door inserts, they never match properly and. IIRC, they were made at different manufacturers, hence the mis-match.

Not sure about the comments about the upper section (next to the 'wood') not showing - that's the worst bit on mine!

Not quite what I said, but to clarify, they are only against the "wood" so any mismatch of colours wouldn't be that obvious which is what I was thinking of.

As for wear/damage that's another issue, though I guess you could repaint them as you wouldn't really need an exact colour match. Unless you were an A8 owner......

Yep that's exactly what I mean
