THe best way to mount alu rings is just to use Blutak, by doing so you can remove them.

Ciao,

I used two way tape, thin slices....works fine and no glue to mess with.

 

Me too. Now it is completely reversible if necessary.

 

Looks great. I did the Alum wheel as well. Not sure about that 4S logo affixed to the rear of the center console. JMHO though. Otherwise it looks fantastic!

Darnit! Now I want that leather stiched cover to replace me plain leather one.

 

That leather stitched leather center console cover is going on my list as well.

 

yes the whole console, including the ashtray and E brake cover is leather. nice stitch down the middle and i will try for a better picture.

For the cost of mods, i would recommend the leather. it is even stitched in that off black, grey colour they use all through the car. It is a mod that really is best appreciated in person. The install is easy other than rebuilding the rear compartment components. That takes a little bit but no harding than like building a model as a kid.

if you have a Carrera logo than i would not buy Gert's stitched version. i tried for one of those covers but i guess they are only available at the time of order. The centre stitch is a nice 2 nd place imo.

 

Here is a pic of my cover with the Carerra log on it. The stitching is on either side of the logo. It is grainy because I sharpened it to better show the logo. Sorry for the poor quality of the pic, bad lighting, crappy camera and lousy photographer (me)!

 

Tim...I am guessing you had to order that with you car when you purchased it correct?

 

i like that cover. I have also seen them with the crest just like the headrests. So, it looks like there are 4 versions of the compartment cover.

plain leather; single stitch; double stitch with carrera; full stitch with crest.

 

Here you go....the variations!
