All I know is that the silver stuff does not go well with a beige interior. It would be nice if an optional wood trim piece becomes available to cover up that stuff. I would have been happy too if Audi could have made it out of the same hologram or brushed aluminum so there is some coherence.

I have beige with the hologram aluminum and I actually really like it. The silver piece you're talking about is closer to brushed aluminum. Different strokes for different folks.

I thought I'd hate it but now that I've got the car, it's really not too bad at all.
