Oh, that's a nice idea. Wrapping the rails in the suede really ties it into the center console itself. Less of that afterthought of an armrest look.

My patterns for MT, AT, and AT->MT conversion Shift Boot are completely different, especially for Alcantara and Leather since they don't stretch.
I got mines setup with MT boot on AT. I'll take a pic later on how mines turned out.

Yep, we've actually done more than 20 center consoles for the customers, this one was a first one with the sliding armrest! haha let us know anytime.

Yeah! When we first saw it, we needed to do something about the rail panel haha

We work with Suede and Alcantara, Suede would have been much easier to work with, but the customer wanted to pay extra for Alcantara, we had to make a new pattern for this one. haha Crazy looking top panel.

Yeah, it works with a few tweaks here and there. We've done that conversion a few times. If customer wants, we do it! haha

This pattern/sample is really cool and looks great with the exterior color! Whose idea was it to use the pattern?

It flows well right!?

The owner was very into the Blue Galaxy theme and asked us if we can find something to use for his interior.

So we gave him a couple of options and he picked this one. We will be doing the entire center console with the same fabric to really pop it off. haha

We are all custom, so we usually source whatever the customer wants either Alcantara, Suede, Leather, or any type of fabric.

Yeah it looks great and isn't obnoxious! Reminds me of a solar system tattoo sleeve for your car

The combination of the new leather color and the red stitches doesn't go well IMO
But nicely done work anyways

Looks awesome! That looks like orange stitching? Looks good imo.

We have a S2000 customer who is trying to get his interior done in Orange Leather and Alcantara combo, can't wait to finish it.

Do you not think it can "handle" the wear and tear
