You can get the Leather Handbrake from Ford. And as for the leather seats & door trims. Talk to BLPRNT_XR8, I'm fairly sure he has already sold his though. Best to check with wreckers and else where.

Chrome Buttons for your Auto Shifter are so rare. Your best, getting your black one chrome plated, or just live with the black button. You need to buy the whole unit to get one from Ford. Sometimes they go on eBay, with a shifter and surround for like $100. So you'd have to buy it, then re-sell the shifter and surround off it.

Cheers

What LG mentioned about the button is what I did - bought one off Ebay and sold on the parts I didnt need. There is a guy on there who sells them quite often, but be very careful, he has a few negative feedbacks saying items were damaged and broken etc.

I've tried painting my button chrome a couple of times now but its a bit ordinary and scratches too easily. I'm looking at modicoating them which apparently lasts for every but can be a bit on the dearer side.

Seen the dna chrome getting sprayed onto a set of rims, awesome product and very simple to use. Looks HOT.
