My 951 was black/black, and the interior was starting to show its age with split seats and worn carpet. I had always thought the Can Can red would be an awesome contrast, and was fortunate to source a set of the carpet from a local RL'er. A bit faded, but the carpets came with a matched bottle of dye from Leatherique. A few hours of work, and the red/pink was once again Can Can red!
Eventually, I want to do some local track events. This, coupled with the fact that recovering the stock seats would get a little pricey, led me to decide on some aftermarket sport seats. Luckily, I came across a pair of Sparco seats via a local craigslist ad. In faded red, no less! Leatherique to the rescue!
Over the course of the next 2 weekends, the black carpet and front seats came out, and the Can Can red carpets and seats went in.
The Can-Can carpet looks incredible! I think I saw someone wants to get rid of a Can-Can shift boot. Forget if it is here or Pelican. However, no driving organization (I know of) is going to let you in with four-point belts.
Just found the shift boot...which had already been sold! Thanks anyway for the heads-up!
The harness is actually 5 point. The sub belt is just not visible in the pics.
Glad my old carpet worked out, this would have been in my S2 if it wasn't for the stupid rear seat shoulder belt blisters that my car needs. It looks great!
Carpet looks great - would be better with black seats IMHO
I considered going with black, but in the end I'm happy with the way the red turned out. I think the black accents on the red seats give just the right contrast.
I like the cancan interior. Mine has it too, but the carpet is turning pink in spots. Please share the details on the Leatherique dye so I can make it red again. Thanks.
