Punch Leather with which dash and color line?
I can't make up my mind on the interior choices to go with the Punch Leather seats. Either the Piano Black dash with Red Rooster color line or the Piano Black dash with the Dark Grey Line. At first I wasn't sure about the Piano Black dash versus the Fluid Silver, but I'm now leaning towards Piano Black even though I have concerns about finger prints and possible scratches showing. Any feedback and photos of your combination would be helpful!
I got the black punched leather seats--dk grey interior-english oak dash/door handles--black piano trim doors. Looks fab IMO. Car color is red w white roof. BTY It is a lot easier on the eyes than the red rooster line.

I'm thinking with the black Punch Leather, Piano dash and Anthracite headliner that maybe the Red Rooster color line might add a splash of color (going with CR/Blk btw).

Piano Black vs. Fluid Silver
Just note that these 2 interior trims are exactly the same material, just in a different color - if you are worried about fingerprints, scratches, etc. I have a PS Cooper and went with the Fluid Silver interior to bring a little of the outside to the inside. Pics in my gallery.
I've got a DS '09 MCS on order (black roof/mirrors). I ordered the punch leather seats, the piano black dash and the rooster red color line with the rooster red steering wheel, shift boot and e-brake handle. My car is due at the port in 3 days and then another week until I pick it up. I just hope I made the right decision on the color combos

Doh! I'll need to borrow my wife's camera... I have the Punch Carbon Leather Seats and Aluminum Alloy trim with Dark Grey Colour Line and Anthracite Headliner... a little dark for some of you colourful folks, but I like my interiors dark!
Dark interiors are more of a sport thing... Its up to you weither you want color or not. My Cooper S had a very basic interior, with the checkered cloth seats & trim, with dark grey color line. I since added a chrome line interior retrofit to add some bling, and will eventually add a rooster red color line to match. R u going to go with a chrome line interior? If you are, go with Piano black. Piano is a very striking accent, if done correctly. Plus, it adds a very luxuries touch (Bentley was the first to offer piano black, back in the 90's. It was a $10,000 on my mom's).
