I've got the OEM CF center console in my '09 and it started delaminating last year. It's not terrible and I don't think anyone would notice, but me. But is is sort of frustrating that the build quality was not better.

It´s a shame for oem parts, you´re not alone..so many customers tellings us about those issues with oem cf parts or send them to us to renew completly.

Having just recently purchased and installed several DB CF pieces for my TTS, I can honestly say that it rivals both OEM and Macarbon. The pattern also matches OEM CF weave. For the price, it's a no brainer.

wow their prices really do look fantastic... only thing is after I piece it all together it still comes to be quite pricey. About $2k +- a few hundred depending on parts. About the same as MA Carbon

I cant believe this little piece is so expensive

I have a lot of CF on the interior of my car. By far, the OEM pieces are the worst!!! Door pocket lids look like they were made in kindergarten class.

I will second DB. Good quality, better prices. MA is fantastic, great quality, excellent customer service.

This is the best finished product shot I have.

I bought it from Sunset. I've found they have the best prices on OEM Porsche parts, and I've used multiple vendors.

The leather stitched console was very expensive.
