Having an early pre-project-drive ZS I have the trims at the tops of the door cards which is much nicer than the later cars without. Not being a monogram car mine are grey which again I prefer, TY car with TY interior is tacky IMHO, especially when old.

It isn't difficult to remove the trim from the door cards and spray them, I got a 400ml rattle can of the correct paint mixed up at a local paint specialist for about £11 for my climate control project. You'll also need lacqure which was another £5.

I'd get some real carbon weave and lay it on top, few clear coats would look the business. Not a fan of the fake carbon.

You know my opinion on this as I was with you taking the bits out, not my taste at all lol. If I was to do it which I never would I would choose the 2003-2004 Rover 45 wood grain instead of the older stuff!

How about - fit the wood to the old ZS if the new owner is happy with that, remove the 'Rhodium' inserts and fit to the monogram car.

Or when the bumpers are in for painting go all out and ask them to colour code all the trims (going to be costly though)!
