Thanks.I like the cross too but dont wanna overkill with too much of it.Less is more right?
Also considering colors like red or yellow stiching but did go with white.
You right i just dont wanna drive to make dirty or scratched:-)

I wonder if there is some protective coating for maintaining the white stitching a bit more. Looks great.

It is actualy.What i pick was 100% polymer thread with uv resistance treated in some chemical as well.
That was my concern to keep clean within time.

I must say that came out GREAT. always wanted to do the doors and seats but just dont have the time motivation to right now. this might just make me do it. Would love to see the car in person, where did you get the work done at? (if you dont mind me asking)

Full Alcantara is Right

When you said full alcantara you meant it! Looks great. Do you have a before picture you can throw in there for comaparison. There is so much going on that I think I am missing probably half the work you have into it.

At least you can recoupe some of that cost by not having to buy Armor All.

Is that little sign of Porsche design 001 in one of the pics, referring to your design? Trying to sell the car as an aftermarket tuned car?

No,not refering to my design.Just limited edition think.I would sell all how it is so no hassle for me.But that is far by and what i would buy?And start over again?
Now is how i want the car be.

Yes, enjoy that car for now, is very cool. Perhaps call a couple of mags, they are always looking for new material. And, the local shop can be mentioned, etc. Good promo for lots of people
