R8 dashboard

Hello.
I'm trying to give to my 214 cab cabin a lighter, brighter and maybe smarter look.
Regarding the 4 vents on the dash for example, does it exist another colour than black?
Same question for the other components of the center console.
Thanks for your suggestions. :)

You can get chrome rings for the dials in the centre console.

Mk2 ROVER 25/MG ZR dash has several options for wood or plain trim, there are two types of vent too.

For ours, you can get stick on wood trim.

Could always take the slats out, mask them up and paint them.

Thanks gents.
For the mk2 alternatives could they be fitted on an R8 (vents)?
Wood trim would be nice.
I've made a rapid search but no way: any link plz?
I'd tried to paint my 25 vents years ago: the paint went horrible due to the heat under the windscreen. Hence I bought very good used black ones and swapped them.
Thanks a lot. :)
