Looks great Nick....really good price too.

That suits your car colour - do you think it would suit a Tungsten Silver car ?? If not, what colour inserts would you suggest ??

It would look great on yours
I had a similar red/black/grey colour scheme on one of my old cars.

Very nice - and in keeping with the brand is there a colour chart for alacantra that you chose from ?

[AWV12]

Great upgrade Nick! It is also on my "upgrade wish list" but I was afraid to loose the "original look" but in your case this is well done!

Do you think when I choose leather, it is roughly the same price as Alcantara? And......would it be possible not only to do the inserts, but the whole seats, doors and dash in this color? (and at what price?)

[krisdelta]

Very nice Nick, you have excellent taste

[Big_Dog]

Great job. I looked up the all black. That's worlds better, retained the feel of the car too.

Oof, now you're talking about a full retrim.. much closer to 3-4 grand. This is a partial trim, the door cards and seat inserts are very easy to get at hence the price. Bang for buck it's fantastic.

Mine would be in leather too, I'll see who BR use and have a think about it. At 900 all in it's a no brainer!!

I simply picked it from the AM colour chart - Chancellor Red. I am told alcantara comes from pretty much one supplier but someone may correct me on this.

+1 and as far as I know BR don't know of anyone local to them. That may have changed!!!

[flyingjase]

Have to say I would never have the confidence to do that myself (I'm too conservative in my taste)

BUT It looks amazing, and the guy has done a great job

Well done - a great amendment to the car.

[AMDBSNick]

One final point folks. If anyone is serious about going down this route make sure you see a swatch first as these pics make it look a teeny bit brighter than it really is. That said, in real life it is just stunning IMHO

[DB9VolanteDriver]

A few photos of OEM inserts on an early DBS coupe for comparison. Other than stitch colour, very little difference it seems. Trimmers did a commendable job.

Nick, you definitely need to have this DBS stitching done. And red brake callipers

Calipers yes. Nearly £400 extra for logos. Bovvered

Oi!

Looks fantastic and a really great job! Congrats!

PS: Dont forget my car was a JCT600 dealer spec car, so its not all the dealers that lack imagination!

[BingoBob]

What's the point of the logos everywhere? It's like walking down the street with a stunning woman on your arm and a t-shirt that says "look, I'm with a hot chick ->".

Adam it was your car that inspired me so thank you. Couldn't remember which dealer it was and being a Sunday with the sprogs running a mock didn't have time to look it up. One dealer has imagination and taste
