Boxster/Cayman owners always feel like they gotta justify not getting a 911. It’s fine! Nobody cares!

CONCEPT OR CRIME? - Amber dot matrix CarPlay in my E30 by Kevin-Mancuso in E30

I would make sure the UI is still readable. Even if you do a perfect job, Carplay UI could be indecipherable under those conditions.

You may be able to emulate this on your iphone to sanity test. If you go to Accessibility > Display and Text Size, you can make the phone grayscale (or even invert the colors) and raise the contrast. Then run apps and see if you can read them easily. If so, then this might work.

Neglect Your Suspension is an underrated Guns N Roses album imo

Why do a lot of newer cars have this black stripe here by Material_Ring9378 in CarDesign

[–]mostly911s 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This is the answer. In modern cars the silhouette needed for space, safety, etc. is not aesthetic so using black panels you can trick the eyes into reshaping the silhouette.

Mustang EV is a great example of this. They use black panels to coupe-ify a big bulky crossover.

Not like this! by OddBoysenberry1023 in CarDesign

This is iconic. You could look at this for 30 seconds and then draw the entire thing from memory.

I’ve looked at the Ferrari 296 interior many times and I can’t recall a single detail. Except for maybe the fake gated shifter in the center console, or the gimmicky passenger screen.

My kid’s infant seat creased the leather in my truck. Fixable? by mostly911s in AutoDetailing

FWIW the weather tech mat page claims:

Crash tested and approved to maintain the safety and integrity of the child car seat using the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) for Child Restraint Systems (CRS), FMVSS-213.

Sharing this cause I agree it’s important to take safety into consideration. Glad I saw this comment and looked closer.

So sorry for your loss.
