I would like to add my thanks to Paul for a magnificient work on my luggage cover.
His black/red prototype for a GTS was perfect for my black interior w/red piping, except for the GTS logo. Asked Paul if he could do a '928 GT' logo in the same style as you normally find on the rear panel of cars; a subtle finesse being that my car has option 'model designation delete' and is thus without this logo on the rear.
Paul of course accepted the challenge, and the result can be seen in the following photos:

As you can see in the last photo, Paul's prototype was almost tailor-made for my car.
Thanks Paul; very happy with the cover; except now you really start to think about what you put in the boot - don't want the cover damaged..![Smilie](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
And before someone points it out: I need new plastic pieces for the exit holes of the bungees; tabs that normally keep them in place are broken and they were glued to the original cover.
Cheers,
Erling

Wow, very nice. Not surprising coming from Paul.
I'd type more about how great it looks but my arms are killing me from landscaping.

Hey Erling,
excellent pictures![thumbup](https://rennlist.com/forums/graemlins/thumbup.gif)
I hope you won't mind if I use a couple of them![Smilie](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
Beautiful car by the way. I just spent the weekend with Roger and his GTS is the mirror image of yours![rockon](https://rennlist.com/forums/graemlins/rockon.gif)
Thanks again for the order
Paul

Thanks again to Paul and Linda for there beautiful work they did for me. In fact, there still working on it! ![bowdown](https://rennlist.com/forums/graemlins/bowdown.gif)
This is part of a little project I'm doing this year on my car.
As I find my interior a little bit to "plain", I decided to put a little something more to my interior.
Also, as I like the carbon fiber look, I went with the Di-noc black carbon fiber and some blue Alcantara.
My plan is to do the door inserts, the plastic parts that cover the seat hinges (like the one whitout the little blue Alcantara strip), the shift plate, the door vents and the shifter and some modifications on Paul's luggage cover.
Can't wait to see everythings installed later this Spring.
I'll post some more pics then!

I'm not sure about the door inserts- will they be set off with some text/logo too? The plastic bits (and maybe the panels where the rear belts emerge??) in c/f will be outstanding! I look forward to the pics! That would be pretty neat inside the binnacle around the gauges, too...

I want to keep the look as mutch as possible as Porsche did with the wood interor option on the door inserts but with a more modern look.

Paul is doing carbon fiber work now too?
Those pieces look incredible Bertrand. Like you I also love carbon fiber, in fact I'm getting obsessed with it. I was looking for all sorts of cool carbon fiber stuff for the car, house etc. It's an addiction. I just ordered a carbon fiber plate frame for the Spyder which should be arriving any day, can't wait for that.
Definitely post up pictures of the completed project.

Afshin,
To be clear, that's 3M Di-noc carbon fiber vinyl.
To get real carbon fiber parts like that is not possible right now. At least not for me.
But the look is very, very close to real carbon fiber as fare as I'm concern.
... And at a fraction of the price!
I don't have the parts in hands right now but by the pictures Paul sent me I'm sure they will be outstanding.![bowdown](https://rennlist.com/forums/graemlins/bowdown.gif)
