Great idea AND I will DEF take the extended silver novillo leather portions off your hands if you are interested in selling them!

Sounds cool. I think Alcantara will hold up better than suede. A good upholstery shop should be able to get this.

While your at it you may also want to cover the top of the dash in leather or Alcantara.

And when you're finished remember: no pics = ban!


Cheers.

Again awesome idea. Let me know what route you take because I've been looking for extended silver novillo leather parts for a long time and would take them off your hands

I'm not sure about the white piping on the seat arms. Do you mean the seat bolsters or the leather on top of the center console? I might not be imagining it the way you are.

Think white piping on the headrests like in this picture would look good.

Let me know how the work comes out because im looking for a place to do interior work as I want to change the sititching on my seasts to white thread and put some memory foam on the seats and a thin layer on the armrests.

Please post pics when your finished, this should be spectacular if you follow through. The piping though..... Im not sure how I feel about it so I definitely want to see it on an E9X interior because I cant really imagine it.

Good luck
