Default Interior Options Poll for my 91 S4

As part of my 91 S4 refurbishment I have enlisted Paul Champagne to work his magic on the interior. As part of this process it has been really important to me to get a sense for color scheme and visual flow of what is possible. Attached are a few color scenarios I have submitted as a poll. Look at them and vote.

RKD in OKC is the master of Photoshop and I employed his services to generate the many different views and color combinations from a base classic gray GTS interior. If you have any thoughts at all about what your car would look like with different interior options I highly recommend RKD in OKC to do this work for you. As you can see it is fantastic.

Also note that I could not model some of Paul's more modern touches, like the laser etched Porsche script, or Pascha inserts, or the french seams, because I could not find any pics of a car with it already installed.

At the moment I have decided to use the quilted diamond inserts for the seats - see avatar. I've also selected the color scheme I want. Just thought it would be fun to showcase some of RKD in OKC's work and the value it brought to my decission process.

Anyone know how I can move these option titles in between the pics?

Car is Turquoise Metallic with Black Interior

Option 1 - Charcol Dash/Pod/Console Seats = All Turquoise with Charcol Piping

Option 2 - Charcol Dash/Pod/Console Seats = Charcol Bolsters with Turquoise inserts and Piping

Option 3 - Turquoise Metallic Dash/Pod/Console Seats = Linen Bolsters with Turquoise Piping

I'm a big fan of charcoal with green inserts piping..but the photoshop of the linen and turquoise dash swayed me.... that option looks great ...esp for either SoCal or Hawaii...

I was going to vote for the first one, but then I saw the pics for the second one and then the third one (WOW). The third one looks awsome, the green dash is like nothing Ive seen before. That will be one unique 928 when your done.

I voted for the third option (linen), but if I had to rank them I'd go:

3
1
2 (A distant 3rd, IMHO)

Look forward to the end results, and great work by RKD!

Green seats with black piping, green dash and door panels (linen inserts?), linen carpet and rear bolsters.

Nothing looks as nice new as light carpet interior.....keeping it looking that way is the problem.

+1 here too.
The first one is very nice.
The third one is very, very nice.
I don't like the second one as mutch.

Can't wait to see what Paul and Linda will do with your interior.
You will have an awsome car.

Paul will be adding the Sport bolsters to my seats. Here is an example of them with the quilted diamopnd inserts and french seams. Paul has been working on a variation that will incorporate a visual seam that can be highlighted in any color.

Dan what did you decide to do?

I also selected Option 3 although I also liked Option 1, both are unique and suit the exterior color well.

Hey Afshin - I'll keep my choice private for just a little while to see how the voting progresses. Won't change my decision based on the poll but by announcing my choice up front might skew the choice of others. I will reveal my choice, with Paul's great advice in a bit.

If it me, with that exterior color, I'd make the inside in a dark green in the same hue-family as the outside, and add some kind of light colored piping... a bit like Aston would do (green w/yellow?)

I've never been to Kauai, but I imagine the linen with green dash and center console with look really "right" in that environment!
