Seat back, PCM + Rear center-console in Aluminum - Look

Hi all, if anyone have these options, please let me know if the surface can dent or scratch easily. I know leather is a lot more forgiving, but i really like the aluminum look(these are painted plastic, right?), If you do not mind sharing some pictures, I will really appreciates it - thx

This is Ram86's car. I'm not sure if the finish scratches easily or not. Send him a PM and maybe he'll be able to answer your question.

I've had the rear centre console on many cars, including my current one. Haven't had a problem with scratching and the doggie rides as copilot quite frequently.

I have my sport seats painted black, which I am sure is the same as the aluminim look (siler paint). I absolutely love the look and even though the cost is ridiculous, I would not have it any other way. I will say that it is delicate, just like the paint on the outside of your car. I have not scratched the seat backs yet, but there are noticable swirl marks in the paint if you were to shgine a flash light on it. I bet silver would be more forgiving than black.
