leather trim - Update - with pics, page 4

That looks absolutely great, and definitely a good choice to go with the red stitching. hmmm looks like they could do some nice extended leather with that quality of finish :oops:
 
It cosy be £120 in total but I did have my door card trim swapped from one door card to another due to a split in the arm rest. So id say £100 for the leather trim.

Im not 100% convinced, may go back black (trim) very soon :|

Really? Just style, or are you unhappy with the finish?

First dibs on bying this if you decide to go back to black 8)
 
I must admit it does look better in the flesh. what is bothering me is on the centre console just in front of the gear stick is a small slit in the leather where they have cut it to fold it underneath, you cant really see it, its about would a mil but I know its there lol
 
It actually looks pretty neat but the whole cabin becomes even more sombre than before. This is especially for those cars that have black seats.

Sigh...looks like I will still stick with the original brushed alu trim...for now.
 
It looks really good :thumbsup: If you continue to have problems with the light switch area, and want me to look at it (i have the skivving tools), happy to do so.
 
Looks great value for money to me. I would live with it for a few weeks before pulling it back out, as I think it will grow on you.

Yeah he could, I don't think it would be that much tbh, I thought about having mine done
 
From the pics the re trim looks very nice :thumbsup: And all at an incredible price too :o

I'd like to actually see it in the flesh, are you attending the Welsh meet or Zed fest this year?
 
Quality looks amazing for the money! Very stylish too. If it were me I wouldn't be satisfied with the raised seams and would ask the guy whether he can emulate the flush appearance of the ///M or Alpina leather dash trim, but that could be just a personal thing. Nice job. :thumbsup:
 
The flush appearance is achieved through skivving - basically you use very sharp blades (although I've seen someone using a dremmel) to thin the leather backing for areas which are folded, stitched or joined to allow for flatness.
