    Here in Europe we can't order "Glossy Premium Carbon" style for the new Z, unlike in Japan where it is available for CTO models, or in U.S. where it is available in the "Signature" series.

    I was wondering if there is some good soul from either Sony or authorized repair center who could share the part number(s) for the "Glossy Premium Carbon" cover?

    On the side note - it looks like Sony just can't get the global distribution right :( Now, the USA customers are left short of TPM, and European customers are left without glossy carbon style... Why does Sony do that is beyond me.

    Looks like the best place to buy Sony stuff is (as expected) - Japan. You get everything there.
