What do you have? I've got an '09 graphite coupe and originally thought chrome if you're gonna buy trim rings get chrome. JonB said that due to my interior that I may want satin.

Anyone have any thoughts or opinions?

Thanks,
Chad

I got the satin from Jon. They are not as "flashy" as the chrome. I also wanted to match the shift ring and door pulls.

I also went with satin, from MGW for the 4 gauge bezels, A/C rings, radio knob and cup holder. Matches the stock interior perfectly.
JonB also got me the door speaker brushed trim rings and seat headrest trim.
For the 4 instruments (Speedo,Tach..) I ordered from Zero Altitude flight but still waiting on delivery + foot pedals and exhaust trim ring.
Looks very nice, like a factory dress-up option

thanks all, you're right, i went with satin:)

the stereo system is **** enough and chrome reminds me of harleys too much.

the thing that sold me was my stereo guy said that the satin says racing and light, chrome is heavy, plus I don't like detailing my car and I'd be touching up that chrome inside my car every time I drove it!!! Also, the door handles/pulls/levers etc in satin are cool and I'm not sure I could get those in chrome either. pics to follow once I get it in and on.
