Personally, I think the standard side blades work best when they contrast with a lighter or vibrant colour so in your case I would go for body coloured side blades.
Seeing you've gone for the red GTS logo on the side blades, have you considered the red GTS interior instead of crayon.
Finally, the car comes with Lane Departure Assist as standard. Unless you can guarantee that you'll signal every lane change you ever make, you'll find Lane Keeping Assistance more hindrance than help. I would hope that with over 400hp on tap you're capable of steering the car between two white lines.

This is so subjective Barrie and in this case so little difference. The blades on a GTS are satin black which makes them unique but on a night blue car it really makes little difference what you do with them.
Personally I like them body coloured because the relief they create by being “3D” is enough, but it really is what YOU prefer. This question will just give you what others prefer.
Nice spec BTW but for a car like that I might cut a lot of the periphery stuff out and stick a Burmester sound system on it!

Personally not a fan of the carbon sideblades on the Macan. Looks out of place due to loads of matt plastic on the bottom half of the car with no other carbon to blend in. The sales manager Black GTS had carbon sideblades which I had for the 2 hours. Barely noticeable and as the car wasn’t particularly clean looked more like a aftermarket wrap. Wouldn’t mind if it was a no cost option but not worth paying for imo.
Tbh I’m not a fan of the gloss black either. Might be ok on darker colour like you have chosen. Prefer body coloured or left as it is.

This confirms what I thought go for body colour. Went for the Red GTS to go with callipers in red. Have lane keep assist on my current car and find it useful on long motorway trips other wise it is switched off.On-Track wrote: ↑Wed May 18, 2022 9:20 am Personally, I think the standard side blades work best when they contrast with a lighter or vibrant colour so in your case I would go for body coloured side blades.

Body colour it is then Thinking swap out the carbon have the black brushed aluminium (nco) and go for the Burmester as I like my sounds, currently have a Bang & Oulsfen in my current car and I love it!Jon A wrote: ↑Wed May 18, 2022 9:21 am This is so subjective Barrie and in this case so little difference.

Tried the gloss black and it does nothing on a Midnight blue hence why I discounted itMrBaozi wrote: ↑Wed May 18, 2022 9:25 am Personally not a fan of the carbon sideblades on the Macan.

I think you could cut the price of Burmester out of your spec easily and not notice the difference!BarrieMc wrote: ↑Wed May 18, 2022 9:35 amBody colour it is then Thinking swap out the carbon have the black brushed aluminium (nco) and go for the Burmester as I like my sounds, currently have a Bang & Oulsfen in my current car and I love it!Jon A wrote: ↑Wed May 18, 2022 9:21 am This is so subjective Barrie and in this case so little difference.

BTW I have those wheels (gloss black version) and they attract positive comments all the time, the config doesn’t do them justice they look awesome in the metal.

Nice. I would say that race tex headlining is a “saw you coming” option for £1k - standard one is fine and not sure you would notice the difference!!
