If I would like to change my aluminum trim on my a4 to that blackish i think its carbon fiber trim that comes on the RS4 (i think) how would i go aboutlocating the parts? are there after market makers for this or is is this an audi part? and is this a hard mod, or can any joe handle this?
thanks...

there is someone selling it for $600+. I don't recall who. One option I was thinking about was taking your existing trim (or buying new oem aluminum trim for $140) and then powder coating it black. The removal and installation of the trim is a bitch because you have to take apart the entire dash. Take a look at what is involved. IMHO it is worth it, though.<ul><li><a href="https://www.audiworld.com/tech/int21.shtml">Aluminum trim mod</a></li></ul>

There is a good chance I will have it back at the end of the week.

there's a professional model shop and spray booth where I work. I could sand them down, paint them and clear coat them.

The piano black is basically just a gloss black, right? That wouldn't be too hard. Of course you'd have to part with your trim pieces for a week or two.
