Default Ready to order Ricks console cover....need your advice..

Im flip flopping back and forth between solid perforation or perforation on the sides only. I want to keep the car classy looking. I have a silver/black S2000. I'm going to order his shift boot too.

Keeping debris out of the perforation is not an issue for me. I'm looking for best look and it's hard to tell which looks best from the pics I've seen. They both look good in pics but I need the advice from some of you that have seen the different combinations in person..

Thanks in advance.

I have NO perforations and I think it looks smooooooth. I can understand the logic behind perforated leather on the seats and maybe even on the steering wheel, but not for trim.

I have a silver/black also with Rick's perforated (all sides) leather console cover and the black shift knob cover (I don't have Rick's shift boot).

I think it looks terrific with the other perforated pieces in the interior. It's not a perfect match, but it's damn close...........I really like it

The smooth console cover is not for me........a little too bland and makes the interior look "too smooth and flat".

If you do a search, you'll find some pics.

One more vote for the perforated. Did you find any pics? It is a great match to the rest of the interior.

I just installed Rick's console cover in my black on black not one hour ago. I looks fabulous, really dresses up the interior. Pictures don't do it justice. I have perforations on top, none on sides. Seems to go best with seats and door panels.

I dont have the perforated, but Tex S2k does - looks great with the perf'ed seats. His is only done on the sides. I'd just do it on the sides and not even on the shift boot. That would be my choice, but I bought mine months before my s2k came in.
