Huddle up, F30 owners! How will this look? Opinions, Please!

I recently purchased a 2013 328i M Sport (mineral gray metallic, black Dakota interior, PP, SAT, heated seats), and have added the black kidney grill, M Sport faux carbon fiber license plate frame and deck lid spoiler (currently on order from emotors2000). I'm now drawn to the M Performance carbon fiber selector knob (for SAT), but I'm concerned about how it will look with my aluminum hexagon trim. Any thoughts, opinions or photos would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Easy, get the matching steering wheel insert and M-Performance carbon fabric kit and call it a day. The aluminum hex looks shitty anyway.... I'm getting rid of mine...

I had a loaner with aluminum hex and it was horrible looking.

I'm keeping the aluminum hex trim, as I don't mind it and don't want to bother with changing it. I'm just concerned about the potential contrast with the carbon fiber selector knob. Any thoughts? Thanks!
