Aluminum Inlay Upgrade

Hey guys. Upgraded my interior trim from cheap looking piano black plastic inlays that got fingerprints and scratched to easily to aluminum. Did 85% of the work myself. Love the look much better contrasting against the black leather and classier looking. Please message me if you need any help. Did most myself and dealer helped me do the two-pieces I couldn't. Would be happy to help anyone local around Chicago.

1100 for inlays from Porsche. 10% discount I found that dealer honored plus I had a $500 Porsche credit. So for a 1,000$ build option it cost me a total of 650$ with the 2 pieces they helped me instal and the parts. #winning

sorry , but since when aluminum looks better then 'cheap looking piano black plastic' ?
works wise input is tremendous , but material used not worth it , just my opinion
P.S> I vote for carbon

Won't aluminum "scratch easily" and "get fingerprints?"

Nope, mine is scratch-free after 6 years and very easy to maintain.
However, aluminium tends to get dents more easily than wood or carbon.
