Leather retrofit
#16
I have the ExclusiveOption's leather pieces, and the quality of the stitching, as well as, the leather is practically equaled to OEM. You cannot tell the difference, IMO.

I have parts from Frank at Exclusive Parts......
and I am really **** about things and I can really say that Frank must have worked at the Porsche Leather Dept!! I am not here to steal away other vendors, I really LOVE Suncoast Parts and their pricing, but Frank has is products below their price and lead time of 10-12 days from the time you order to the time you get it and that only happens when you order crazy colors like I have, Carrera Red. If you have the common colors, cut 5 days away from that. His customer service and his emails are perfect and again his work is 100% OEM, if not better!!! Check him out.....exclusiveoption.com.

I have a few pieces from exclusiveoption.com and they are very nice, and as others have said he is a nice guy. One thing I have noticed is that his prices can vary on the same part from his email quotes, to his website, to his ebay auctions.

I believe his Ebay ones are either overstocked items or pieces that customers canceled. Regardless, the prices are negotiable within reasons, and he's a gentleman to do business with. I would not hesitate to order more leather options from him.

How do I find his ebay listings?
#22
Go on EBAY and type in "Porsche 997 leather". Look for Exclusive Option as the seller. He has not listed anything for the past 3 days, last I checked.

Here is a link to the main site:
http://www.suncoastparts.com/category/997S_Leather.html
For starters the Console lid with Logo looks great:
Another great upgrade I like is the door trim:
Let me know if you have any other questions, we are happy to help!

Hey guys Exclusive Options is the real deal. Forget buying from the dealer, or used stuff on ebay. I initially bought a few leather pieces for my car and was blown away by the quality and craftsmanship so went all out and bought everything I could. The price is reasonable and well worth it. my car looks, smells, and feels like it came from the factory with everything leather. I introduced the site to my friend and he got alot of his interior leather parts from them. Everything from console parts, mirror door trims, chrono pod, ignition dash trim, and other miscellaneous pieces which complete the interior giving it a high quality feel. Before I found them I was lurking on ebay trying to score used Porsche leather parts to replace plastic pieces in my car but now I can get new factory quality leather parts from Exclusive Options. I haven't been able to find anyone else who can match the factory quality and even exceed it and have so much variety in trim pieces. If you want to replace your interior plastic pieces with high quality Porsche leather then honestly your not going to find anywhere better than this.

Im gonna take some pics and post them here soon. My buddy has some on his car too and I will try to get his pics too. Its hard to see leather in pics aside from stitching. But feeling in and seeing the quality in person is what really sets it off.

just ordered a few pieces from frank at exclusive options - including the big one - all 3 pieces of the PCM. didn't order this from factory and always kicked myself. prices was actaully a bit lower than factory.
everything i've heard and my dealings with him have been great. he emailed me the other day and said they are coming out beautifully.

Does anyone have a picture of the leather console lid that also shows the standard console? I like how everything is flush with the standard console lid and I'm wondering how it looks with a nice leather lid with the standard center console.
