I dont think so....you may have to order the rest of your switches in matte finish....but to be honest, mine are glossy and I was planning on replacing all my switches, but it doesnt look all that bad. Unless I pointed it out to you, then you probably wouldne notice.

porsche dealers have both the glossy and matte finish...just make sure to be specific when you order from the parts dept.

I didnt think that Targa switch was available in glossy becaus ethe Targa was made after they made the switch to matte switches...(02+) and glossy switches were in 99-01 cars....so why would they make a Targa switch in glossy when Targas had matte switches? I asked at my dealer when I ordered it and they said there wasnt one...they could have been wrong....

They do not make the Targa switch in glossy, but if you buy the matte one you can spray it with clear acrylic and it looks perfect (that's what I did). Just use 3 or 4 light coats on the switch and you'll be very pleased. Good luck.
