Armrest without red stitching
 
Just wondering if anyone has seen any armrests that don't have red stitching. For those with the series blue / aozora edition brz, the stitching in the car is blue so that the red doesn't really work.

JPM Coachworks has an option if you want to reupholster one but its $350 for them to supply one, re-do it and then ship it.

Looking for a cheaper option if such a thing exists

Try contacting @RedlineGoods, pretty sure they can help you out.

I'm in the same boat, but to be honest the price isn't bad considering the price of the armrest itself. It might be cheaper if you supplied your own arm rest as IIRC they're available for less than the $215 they charge.


It's that, or removing the stitching by hand and then restitching it all by hand in the same holes. Tons of work but it can be done, but I think I'll go with JPM's alcantara...

we at Carsmo Design are testing blue stitching on our armrest. If all goes well we would be producing blue stitching armrests VERY soon. Stay tuned! Please PM me for any questions!

If the blue stitching matches in color and style to the OEM series blue stitching I will get one for sure.

That's good news for you OP! I was just going to say I'm very happy with the CARSMO armrest that I just purchased, and they make them in small batches so they might be willing to do one with blue stitching for you.

Thanks for that info Ray! That would be a nice option for the series blue owners - the CARSMO armrest is the most comfortable, most factory-like option available for this platform IMO.

Prefect! Now where is group buy preorder thread? :bellyroll:

Our blue stitching has been verified as a very good match by our prototype Series.Blue tester. They will enter production soon. I will update you guys again soon!

I would love a blue one as well. I was looking around to purchase an arm rest the other day but did not want to purchase the red stitching version.

chamourian 09-26-2014 01:21 PM

hmm I would also be interested in what the final product looks like. Sounds perfect if the blues match

We now have a few blue stitching CARSMO armrests in stock. The color is a very good match, I can't say it's 100% spot on but everyone who saw it said there's no noticeable color variation from the Series.Blue stitching. Just want to make that clear before anyone orders.

If you are interested please PM or e-mail me at Ray@CarsmoDesign.com. Thanks!

Hey Ray,

That looks great. However do you guys have a JPM Coachworks Center Console Lid in the works?
