Sorry but I was so excited that I completely forgot to take any interior pictures. I barely remembered to take some exterior pictures and this was after I dropped it off for PPF. The other pictures were from PECLA and my wife and kid and they also forgot to take some interior pictures. I'll be sure to share more pictures once I get it back.
I got the 18 way with CXX Houndstooth/Pepita inserts. I also did the center armrest with the same Houndstooth/Pepita as well. The seats have matching color seat piping only on the seat back. I actually thought it would have it on the seat cushion as well but it looks like they went with deviated stitching on seat cushion and seat piping on seat back for some reason. I also optioned the back of the seats in leather. I couldn't stand seeing that glaring cheap plastic dip silver on the seat backs and lower portion of the seats where the controls are. I know a lot of people say not to waste the money because it's on the back of the seats and you won't see it but if it bugs you, trust me, you'll see it and that's all you'll see. Now the seat is all black except for the stitching, piping and Pepita inserts.

I'm still on the fence if I want to get the Carbonio front plate mount. I'm thinking of getting the original version that mounts to the lip. I wouldn't drive around with it on but leave it in the car to use when street parking, etc. I know they have a new version that attaches to the underside of the front bumper with a mount but I don't want to attach anything to the car using double sided tape especially since I"m getting ppf and it will have to attach on top of the ppf. If I'm going to attach anything, I might as well just drill the two holes and mount the front plate and I definitely don't like the offset plate mounts that use the tow hook. IMO, that just looks horrendous. My OCD would die a little bit every time I see my car with the offset plate.

So you finally decided to go with the PPF!.... you were wrestling with that decision if I recall.

I'm really trying hard to NOT go down that rabbit hole. I've done it before on my previous cars and one thing leads to another and then another and then another.....I originally was thinking about tinting but since you can't tint the rear plastic window, I decided to not tint just the side windows. That will just look weird to me. If there is anything I'll do, I might do clear corners but at the same time, I'm also ok with keeping them stock. I'm not planning on running with a front plate and with a bright blue Smurf color, I'm trying to avoid police scrutiny (fix it tickets) as much as I can with this car. I don't believe the clear corners are legal in CA even if they light up orange. I believe the reflectors have to actually be orange.

That is a tasty proposition but one I'm really trying to stay away from it. Don't want to fall into any rabbit holes.
