Missing leather door trim piece with luxury package
 
https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.aud...dede01714.jpeg
The luxury package with the smooth leather and contrasting stitching is outstanding but....it ends there with the marbled plastic trim piece in place of a leather upper arm rest next to the window. Hopefully it will be available to order at some point. Non US cars (at least in Australia) with leather package have this piece in leather.

I see Europrice offers leather door trim but I assume this is the lower arm rest that comes with the US luxury package? I did send a request for it and hopefully they will be able to make it available for us. It would really finish off the leather package!

Not the answer we were hoping for
 
See below for the answer from Europrice


“Unfortunately the door trims are essentially one large piece. The portion on top at the windows is the part of a whole door card that covers the whole door. Really only the handle, trim and armrest are separate items in the door card.”

We need a groupon for the whole door for US buyers lol

That looks so nice with the extra leather trims. It reminds me of my 650 GranCoupe and how it just felt like all luxury and manufacturers not cheaping out. Although that was a 120K+ build would've been nice to have this in the US market when spending 85K+...

Most likely could be done if the leather could be ordered and shop could do contrasting stitching along crease line.

Hoping we can just order that top piece at some point, it’s available in other countries can’t believe it’s not on the us spec cars. Doesn’t make any sense.

Below is the answer I received from Europrice:

Looks like this is offered for 2020. The 7HL full leather is an option showing in the 2020 ordering guide, as an addition to the PPD Luxury package. No pricing yet
