Sounds nice ...

On my '07 C4S I optioned the Natural Leather Grey (like a softer black) together with the seat and back inserts in dark grey Alcantara, leaving the bolsters in leather. It's a very subtle, comfortable combination.

Get some pictures as soon as you get it. I think it will look really good.

Two questions I have before placing the order on Monday:

1) How do I get the plastic surrounding the PDK to be in leather? Example: http://img196.imageshack.us/img196/2...heqejllluv.jpg

2) Should I get the vanity mirrors or steering column in leather or just leave them as is? I have the Natural Grey selected, so it appears to blend in quite well without.

If money is no object, why are you cheaping out on snows and rims in your other thread?

Who said I was cheeping out at all? I'm trying to find an authentic GT3RS wing for the car and planning on buying some high flow cats and carbon mirrors. I fully intend to get some winter tires, I just don't want to get a pair of BBS-LM's to crap up during the few times they'll be used.

Can't answer your first question, but for the second one... personally I would do just the mirrors. I never even think about the steering column as something that would need leather splashed onto it. It's probably too late now...

As for the wheels... get a good lightweight set. I just got 19" (from 18") for my car and was disappointed that the acceleration wasn't affected, although turn-in is a lot crisper.
