How Rare is Piano Finish interior ?

Post by **eyeball** » Tue Jul 28, 2009 12:41 am

I've got both the brushed alloy and the carbon in my audi's and there both very nice, i'd say the alloy is dateless and the carbon looks a bit blingy. I was wondering why you had a matching set of carbon cusions in the back contigo??

I think piano finish looks way classier than carbon (carbon is std on the S4 remember).

You can't tell me this looks dull??

I've got carbon in the rs4 and piano in the a3,so the best of both worlds

I think they both look good,but really wouldn't be arsed what each car had,it would'nt make me not buy the right car.

I have piano with black leather in a black car. Was exactly what I wanted as I thought the carbon looked about as authentic as most wood look plastic does!

Well it just looks like an all black interior to me with no real contrast and a high gloss trim in the centre.

Each to their own as I said, if everyone liked the same thing the World would be a DULL place wouldn't it.

Im Stuck with Carbon,

The Piano look reminds me of my Bentley Continental Mulliner Interior which sadly got written off

Just looking at the leather seats in the photo and they look more of a matt finish rather than shiny. So how were the leather seats originally finished off, glossy or matt???

So is the carbon inlay fake carbon or real???? if it's fake, then I have to say I've seen alot worse!

Real isn't it? Come on the Integra Type R had it, it must be cool!

i think carbon is real eyeball and its the lighting on the seat which seem to make them look matt

Post by **Nige_RS4** » Tue Jul 28, 2009 4:25 pm

The seats are supposed to be matt - it's ar$es that make them shiny!

I had brand new RS4 recaros in my S4 and the leather was a matt finish.

Cheers rtd, yes I was hoping it was as obviously mine is all shiny and I didnt fancy refacing the leather to get it back to original.
I thought the carbon was real aswell though I do like the honda carbonique!lol
