They look like the black panels that Fred sells.

I have lots of extra A820 parts if anyone needs them!!

Thank you for all the kind words.

I just took the wooden panels off and had them automotive painted black. Havent done the glass coating yet though :D.
The brown leather strip was also changed to black porsche grade leather...maybe should have gone Alcantara :p.

Kind regards,
Tang
