CL Trim

What trim do you prefer on a Cl with black interior? The black marble or the brushed aluminum

Not that I have a black interior, nor a CL, I like the marble looking trim. Stands out less, which accentuates the rest of the car nicely.

I had both. The marble didn't look that bad at all. But I like the aluminum better. It flows with the black interior better & accents it. If your a 6mt add a shift knob with some aluminum trim & it all ties together nicely.

I like my fake bowling ball wood, give a classy touch to the interior. I also like my interiors dark and not distracting (sorta like old school BMWs, before they went all aluminumized) so that may be why.

There is. Not sure if you can buy 1 any longer. It was the wood/leather wheel. The "wood" portion was the marble trim.

It was a Acura factory accessory. Any dealer had it. Direct replacement.

Couldnt find one, so I ordered it through Acura a couple of years ago. Not sure if they still sell it but it was around $600.

Was that just for the wheel or did you purchase the airbag with it?

I've got the black marble and get compliments all the time. I like the aluminum but I think the black marble is just a little more classy...were as the aluminum is a little more modern look. Personal pref.

I've never seen that before. That looks great. Acura should have had that available for the parchment.
