Rob_Mitchell Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 got the leather man coming over tonight to price my car up but not sure what i want done i fancy keeping it black with orange stiching and piping as i think too much orange will look over the top.. so anyone got pics of there own cars interior?? so i can steal ideas:search: cheers guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deathmonkey Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 Always liked the black/orange idea. Can't help with the interior myself, just standard leather seats in mine. If you wouldn't mind, can you tell me who is doing yours and roughly how much you're looking at for yours? I'm just shopping around myself at the minute, not sure who to go to. Cheers!

CJ Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 Orange alcantara centres, off white leather sides, black stitching. I think that could work very well with an Orange colour car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Mitchell Posted December 3, 2009 Author Share Posted December 3, 2009 yeah alcantara centres would look cool but is it too much??? a company called stitched-up are doing it they do all my work.. im having front and rear seats and both door cards and its around the £1000.00 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think orange stitching against black leather would be the better option or maybe so suede instead?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcAB10 Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 nice, very nice First time ive seen that, very nice mate:) Reminds me of the BM's that have the red nappa with black interior think it looks great quite like the look of that... very nice, very different probly benefit from a black carpet Thanks guys!! I had it done in Livingston at Transcal, they manufacture the leather interiors for Aston martin, Jaguar etc. For the front, rear and arm rests it was £1280 so around the same as what you have been quoted mitchell. m_life, the carpets have been dyed black now like in the third pic, the first two were taken just after the retrim. I like the plan of black leather with orange stitching too, if it was me thats the route i would take, considering how eye catching the exterior of your car is then a nice subtle and classy interior would look great.

Rob_Mitchell Posted December 7, 2009 Author Share Posted December 7, 2009 that looks wicked cj might have to copy that ha ha, not joking either.. are they the standard seats?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 that looks wicked cj might have to copy that ha ha, not joking either.. are they the standard seats?? Yes they were. I think it would be safe to say that the car was fairly unique at the time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesArup Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 I went with the following from the G&B guys back in about 2005 I think ... still look just as good now as they did the day they were done. My car is black (obviously), but I think a similar sort of shade would still compliment the orange quite nicely. Cheers, J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob_Mitchell Posted December 7, 2009 Author Share Posted December 7, 2009 nice j, all ideas look wicked i think its having the bottle to go cream or white, is cleaning a pain?? i dont use it much so i think ill be ok, i just hear jeans can rub onto the leather leaving marks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Mitchell Posted December 7, 2009 Author Share Posted December 7, 2009 the racers look, love the recaros re-trimmed that was my first idea but cant get some cheap enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesArup Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 In all honesty, I don't think I have EVER given them a 'proper' clean! Just the odd wipe-over once a year maybe with a bit of leather cleaner .. but nothing more than that. I guess they aren't as 'clean' looking nowadays as they are in that picture, but that's to be expected after 4 years of use. I have had no issues with marks on them or anything like that (I wear jeans everyday!), and they still look great I think. Maybe I should give them a good clean though and see what happens!
