I got them from Dallas Custom Steering Wheels, via core exchange therefore cost is very reasonable. They allow you to return if you are not happy for any reason, so there is not much risk.

I'm not sure that I would have done the ashtray lid and e-brake banana, but the over all look is great. well done.

Also, maybe try filling the recessed lettering on the PDK **** with brush-on hobby paint.

I kinda agree. I first did the banana, it looked good. I then did the ashtray lid, result was debatable. Thinking of reverting. Good catch!

Interesting idea. I will look into that.

One possibility is to rewrap the shift **** with red Alcantara, not sure it would become too "busy"... or consider grey Alcantara, result would be subtle, but it makes all touch points Alcantara, which is cool.

Thanks for all the kind comments and thoughtful suggestions.

Very impressive forum.

Sorry not my 'cup of tea'.

A bit too bold and random for me. But it doesn't matter what I think . . . . It's all about you! (lol)

Similar situation

Although I had Red stitching, was missing something. Added Red Seatbelts, key strap to match. Contoured Logos on mats made by Keith Collins. Red dash surround by Exclusive Options.

I wasn't impressed by the thumbnails, but once I opened the pictures, wow! It is so much detailed, so beautiful and elegant! I wish my seats had the red stitches. Thanks for sharing.

I am thinking of "dialing back" a couple of pieces, such as the asthray lid. Thanks for the kind words.

Where did you get the red instrument dash surround, and the red seatbelts. Were they realtively easy to DIY?
