Your priorities?

Mine would be,

1) Steering Wheel
2) Center console
3) Seats
4) Door Pads
5) Dash Piece (bonded into 1 piece)
6) all the current pieces they have developed

everything stitched in dark gray thread

It's taken some time. They had a line of cars to do and moved shops so I've been rocking basically no interior for a while now...everything is supposed to be done right around March 3rd.

Ahh, ok. Didn't realize your car was at their shop.

i think a CF will look better.

And cost about $6,000,000,000.00 dollars......that's with a 'B'. Please have a prototype made and let us know what it costs. Thanks.

To each his own...the only interior CF I've ever liked was on the LFA and it was used very judiciously. CF goes overboard very, very quickly for me. It's a little too boy racer...

Now if we could just get some aluminum to replace plastic bits I'd be all over it.

I guess I finally found a piece of JPM Coachworks I don't care for. I can see why folks would like the console like this but it's just not for me.

Honestly it makes me think of 60's/70's era conversion vans where everything is covered in shag carpet.

One covering too far....

Doesn't really look bad, just not my style. The plastic finish give a little more contrast between the carpet/cloth I think.

Interesting, I was looking at it last week wondering what some soft padded leather look like. After I get a few things done, I'm going to order some of the pieces offered. It would be cool if it could be sold as a complete kit one day.

This x100. However I think for the cost of actual aluminum trim replacement I could just paint the stock pieces with ALSA Ghost Chrome for much less and no one would know the difference. There's enough metallic content in the paint that it supposedly feels like metal to the touch.

I have been considering the Alsa ghost chrome to but from the little information I have been able to find it's very hard to get the desired result. I am on the marketing mailing list and they seem to have a one or two day sale every other week on various products. If the ghost chrome ends up on sale I will grab one and let you know how it looks. With the vinyl it,s cheap and easy to try stuff. Check out my current interior. But with the alsa I expect things will be a little more work to get good results. At the end of the day if I botch it. It's easy and cheap enough to just buy another trim part. This car is so great to experiment with!
