....Getting the cushion areas done will depend entirely on being able to get the right Interlagos cloth - Hence my need to see a sample. Looking likely but I shan't be counting them chickens before they're hatched.

They'll still have the .:R on them - I'm totally happy about that, for the same reasons as you. :happy2:

RR, I've never liked CF but your seats just look amazing! Even I wouldn't mind having them in my car!

Very professional-looking.


Still not so sure about the trims though - I liked the brushed aluminium effect.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

They're brilliant Robin, a really good job - especially with the changes of weave direction, that's some care and thought taken.

I'm very tempted to have my mirror caps and front badge done now.
Sideways yo!

....Yes, it's one of those ideas that either works extremely well or badly and nothing inbetween!
