When do the matching roll bar covers come out?

Artwork at its best. Nothing like having an interior as beautiful as the exterior of the 928.

I need another 928, these posts are killing me.

Keep up the incredible work Paul.

Thanks again for all the nice comments.

I will do a seat clinic at the OCIC, with detailed examples of different styles and types. Hope to see you all there.

Paul, what would you suggest to maintain seats which are in new or very good condition?

I have the following:
Leatherique - Prestine Clean
Leathermaster - Vital Cream
Griots - Leather Care

Feel free to make any other suggestions, I would love to learn from someone with experience.

Wow Paul! Another impressive set of seats. I really like the pattern/design of this set of seats.

Absolutely gorgeous! I wonder what they'll look like when they are in a 928.

I second Afshin's question. I've been using Lexol and he doesn't like it

Guys,

regular maintenance is easy. You need a good PH balanced cleaner, and a conditioner. Let the new leather live in it's new environment for a couple of months, then clean and condition once a month.

I like products from Leather Magic:
http://www.leathermagic.com/Pages/lthrcleaner.htm
http://www.leathermagic.com/Pages/lthrconditioner.htm

UV protection is more of a problem. It's harder to use, as it as a tendency to spot and stain.
I treat all my pieces before shipping, but I use a spray gun.
If you use a sun shade, and condition the leather regularly, you leather will remain perfect.

Dave,

that looks excellent. They actually look better in the car.

Glad they made the trip safely. The boxes even look unmolested.

Hope you don't mind if I use some of these pictures

Now we have to do something to integrate those door inserts

Thanks again for the order.

Wow, very nice work... As always.

They look simply beautiful in a 928.

Keep up the good work Linda and Paul.
