Good man!
You decided what your going for then?
Mines not ready yet but posted a couple of update shots in the interior thread if you're interested. Good luck with yours.
Always love looking at what other's have done!You decided what your going for then?

I think I have plumped for something very similar to this:
I have also put the date forward to the end of this month, as it takes longer than I initially thought (I thought it would take 2 weeks max, silly me...), so I have been told that if I drop the car off on the 29th (Saturday), I will have it back in May, ready for the Summer!
ETA - I have also bought the seat bolster and attachment, I wanted one in my first Tam, but were never in stock at the time! Are they any good?

What's the seat bolster and attachment...?
I got it wrong, it's a lumbar support, this:http://www.racetechdirect.co.uk/tvr-car-part-v0322...

OK, the Tam is now with Adrian and Central TVR (What a nightmare getting through Stourbridge!). They have my car until the end of May, but am hoping it will look better than new when complete.
We discussed colour options, and I have gone for a Prussian Blue and Portland grey combo for the leather, and either black or Midnight blue for the carpets. As well as the interior re-trim, they are installing my amplified sub at the rear of the seat, changing the pedal plate to the CF one I got off Shidevil, the HID headlight upgrade, front LED indicators, Shadow chrome alloys, red callipers, black and red plug cover, Nitrons, new roof and rear screen (decided to go blue again once I discussed it with Adrian), Momo trek R steering wheel, and a few hard wires for RA and dash cam. Then a service and MOT!
Can't wait - going to be a very long few weeks.
I was so pleased with the overall performance of the engine again, when driving up there, that I think I will stop at the 3.73 Hydratrack diff and CR gears next, and see how I get on with that set up, rather than go straight in with the 4.3 upgrade.
ETA - crap pics taken from my dash-cam:

Just had a couple more pics sent...
And - I emailed Adrian about the possibility of re-painting the seat backs black, as the silver backs never looked right and were scratched anyway - he replied by saying they had painted them at no extra cost, as they would have otherwise spoilt the final look!
I was told everything's ready to be put in by the end of the week, and all the mechanicals are done.
