That looks totally awesome! Once I have enough info to decide if I want to wait for a STI BRZ or keep my non-sti brz I'm getting the wheel done (either the STI or non-sti one).

Does Alcantara hold up well against zippers being scuffed up against? Other than possibly wearing a little quicker than other spots. My girlfriend has managed to scuff up her entire side of the passenger center arm rest with her huge bag. One of the options I was thinking of was just getting the center all alcantara.

Real Alcantara holds up pretty well. The knockoff stuff not so much...

@cmcauley It is an extremely resilient synthetic fabric, but as @Gen pointed out, the knock offs are over all incredibly poor and will fall apart quickly. Short of a sharp edge cutting into the material or a solvent being rubbed too hard into the material, it is extremely difficult to damage in a permanent manner. Plus it is UV-treated, and oh so smooth. It should not scuff or wear from your girlfriend throwing her purse around.

Thanks, that is really good news because the scuffs on the console are starting to drive me nuts. I'm thinking of giving the inside of my car a little make-over once my tax refund comes in and you guys are first on the list. Thanks for the info!

Awesome products, definitely look at these when I get my FR-S

How much are the arm rest and door card parts and do we get any discount if we send you ours to use to wrap??

@jazztennor The Armrests are $165 and the Uppers are $145, you would have to either send in your own parts or purchase new parts to be wrapped. We will probably offer a core-buyback for those two sets of parts due to their high cost.
