Yea the diamond pattern came out cool. I had all of the interior work done aftermarket. The car was all black stock. Thanks for the kind words.

I like the result as well. Could you say some more about how you had this done? About how long did it take? And it looks like you also did deviated stitching and did some of the contrast in the back seats.

The process was pretty straight forward. Anything I thought up these guys just said yes with confidence. There is deviated stitching throughout. Original black stitching was removed and the yellow stitching was sewn back into the same holes. Done perfectly. The only leather that was replaced was the steering wheel, the shift boot and the brake lever. That leather couldn't be reused after it was removed but the black leather on the seats (front and back) is original. I had them lay the new leather over top of the old leather on the steering wheel to thicken it up a bit.
The only regret I have is not doing the diamond pattern on the door panels. I think that would have tied in nicely.
The biggest delay is getting an appointment with these guys. They are very busy and it's a family business. But I wouldn't trust anyone else with my car. I can't say enough good things about them. I ordered the leather ahead of time and when they got the hide in then I dropped off the car. I think it took about 2-3 weeks to get the hide. From there they did the work in about 2 weeks. I believe I used 1 full hide of leather for the whole thing.
I hope that answers some of your questions.

First of all I love the FVD steering wheels they look amazing, maybe I am a little old school but I also really like the 911 with the wood shifter **** and steering wheel. I don't think I have ever seen the Terra Cotta and white interior in person but it looks amazing in pics.

thanks guys. i have a white GT3 w/full leather and the alcantara pieces that come standard on full leather GT3's and am looking for a way to spice it up a bit but i dont want to over due it. maybe just a console or just a pcm face or just the vents in white will do

I think a White PCM Face, White Trim Strip & Carbon Fiber Center console would look sweet!

Coach Trim in Danbury, CT did all of the work. They are great guys and do some amazing interiors.

I love two tone interiors. Good luck and post pics when you get it done. What colors were you thinking of doing?

thanks. ill post some pics this weekend

This is a classy interior. I like the way you optioned for the black instrument and sport chrono dials, offsets the natural brown theme nicely.
