2021 GT Eternal Blue Mica

So other than all weather floor mats, stickers, rear view hanging thing, a couple flowers on the vent, and a couple car magnets, here is what I think could be of contribution to this thread:

First thing I used was a roll of light blue tinted vinyl that sticks and I used this on the turn signal on the side mirrors so it’s still yellow when the signal is going but blue instead of white when not aka most of the time. Also the sunroof, lights, and little random ok looking pieces on the vents. The tint is nice because it blocks just a little sun from the sunroof but is still thin enough that the interior lights color is still yellow-white but the blue looks great during day.

“Carbon Fiber” pieces on the start button and middle console cause that gloss black was killing me for 2 months

Lastly I painted the steering wheel logo with light blue metallic acrylic paint mixed with water to keep some of that shine from the aluminum, and the top aluminum part of the gear shifter too

The little touches really do it for me

Added oem black mirror caps to my white 17. These are not just plain black. They match the black oem paint so there are metallic flakes in it. Just popped off the old cap and slapped these in. Took 10 minutes.

to remove them i used plastic panel removal tools.

Really liking the carbon fiber console cover as I'm not a big fan of the gloss black in that area. Scratches too easily. Does it just stick on top of the existing panel?

I got a cover for my center console the brushed metal one and it is applied with 3m double sided tape.

The tape was pre applied to the covers.
 
How is the fit? Install? It seems like it’s not something that would last…
I’m looking for the CE oem part number if anyone has it. Sadly, even my dealer couldn’t help (or didn’t feel like helping).
 


New ebay accessories...Black door handles and black grill surround.
I got black door handles as well but you can tell they didn't care to make them properly because looking up close from the top of the handles you can see they don't completely cover them.

From the side though they look fine.
 
Installed Drilled Slotted Rotors and Ceramic Brake pads.
I couldn't get ceramic brake pads off my old car fast enough when I tried them out. They fade too much in heavy traffic. It was down right scary. They didn't minimize dust that much either over semi-metallic.

Bed them in properly? I've never had an issue with ceramic pads on any car.
