• enhances the dashboard lines,
• introduces visual order in the driver and passenger areas,
• contributes to the readability of other controls.

The silver colour is neutral and practical, easily integrating into both classic and sportier configurations.

• factory-perfect fit to the cockpit structure,

For many users, this is also a way to aesthetically replace a worn or damaged panel without altering the interior design.
