£400 to £500 for the door cards, centre armrest, gearstick gaitor and handbrake re-trimming in 3D carbon leather and includes embroidering the headrests :smiley:
oooOOH that sounds reasonable who is this with. Also how reflective is the stuff you are looking at getting you have got to be careful with getting blinded when sunny.  :cool:

The CF leather is not cheap, a section 2mtrs sq is £100, my contact can do it but I would suggest you contact him direct, the only issue I see is that he is down in Southampton. I posted out my arm rest to him and got it back within 2 weeks. I am trying to negotiate getting mine and Greenouse's Headrests embroidered so if anyone else wants it doing let me know what your requirements are. As I have cloth seats I will only be wanting the GTI embroidered, but others may want alcantara or CF leather.
Here is a crap pic of my arm rest re-trimmed in Black Alcantara with red stitching.

I suppose it's an 'individual' thing. Speaking for myself, I like my car to be different and not 'conform' with how it 'should' look and without asking him im sure Mark is after a bit of individuality himself??  :huh:

Yup, I like to personalise my car to my taste with little details, I like to think that what I do is tastefully done.
