I had to order the whole set from FVD I believe. It was basically a rip off but hopefully worth it.
I can look at the receipts to verify if you want. Just let me know.

More interior shots, dash getting wrapped today. I'm having it done as both RS style interior and full interior option less standard door cards, still deciding on whether or not to do the stock door cards. Material and craftmanship would match and I could change it up over the coming years to keep it intersting.
To do it right, I'm contemplating having Recaro CS seats done to match when in 4 seater configuration. As you all know, Pole Positions are fixed back while CS seats fold forward for rear entry. Both styles are much lighter than stock so I'm not redoing the stock seats. Overkill I know, but cool to have option in years to come.

By the way, only 1 mode grau 911 that I could find at Luftgekuhlt last weekend and it was a stunner imho. Color code was from different era so slightly different shade. Here's hoping mine looks as cool as this one.

Had this done for the front ... rear plate from Illinois to match without the "e" because only 7 letters in custom plates. May repaint front plate to match Illinois color exactly.

Thanks and yes I can confirm re FVD... you have to buy a complete set for every possible, world-wide configuration.

Speaking of "Cerakoted", are the billet shift lever and floor pedals also getting the Cerakote treatment?

This car is going to look stunning when finished!

Right now I'm leaving those items in current form. I had the RennLine floor boards and track mats cerakoted too. I want to see how the contrast looks on the shifter and pedals.

Update
Final stages ... should be done within 2
Both sets of recaro seats and rear seats will match.
Lower dash delete trim piece was cerakoted and with match seat backs, roll bar, floor boards, floor mats, ebrake handle, both door lock items on each door, seat brackets for pole positions, outside window trim, outside door handles and windshield wipers.
Driver related input items will be aluminium in color ... shifter, pedals, steering wheel.
Installing upper glove box where airbag resided so loss of lower dash glove box / ashtray and door pockets won't be so missed.
Should be cool.

Beautiful build.....I love how the lower dash delete cleans up the bottom of the dash and opens up the tunnel area. Makes the car look more open in the cockpit compared to mine. Really good motivation for me to install mine. Love all the other little details in the build, too.

Keep up the great work and awesome updates!

^thanks.
Rodney at Classic 9 is awesome to work with and doesn't cuts corners.
He plans on really cleaning up with custom "boxed" trim piece above center console to clean everything up.
He is installing a single ambient light that will subtly illuminate the stick shift area when dark out .
I'm going for the 01 - 03 Audi S8 feel which I still think is one of the best done ones.
I've thought about putting in a light source above the rear view mirror into the headliner but probably won't. Would be cool to have but dont have time to source.
