Are you doing door cards too? what about a tufted headliner to match?

They have a very italian design look about them.

You have to post installed pics!

Dude! very sweet. You can see how nice and soft that leather is.

I'm going to be doing something similar, I've got a Silver one on the way, and I'm going for a similar Silver/Tan look. I'll be sure to post pics when it's done (month or so).

Thanks for posting, a high watermark.

I had a Mercedes with the similar interior color scheme as yours, only with the center inserts being cloth instead of leather, just the bolsters and backs were "MB-Tex" (pleather). The dashboard and other panels were the same black, so this combination brings back some memories for me. So yes, I like it.

Actually that's dirt cheap. In NY, interiors, just labor are more like $4500 and up. I used Alcantara Italian suede at $80 a yard. I think I spent about $1500 just in material. The shop rates can be $125 an hour (x8 hr day is $1000 a day). A complete job with headliner can take 1 1/2 weeks.
