.1 GT3 RS Carbon Repair Recommendations
#31
Planning to either replace my plastic center console with leather or carbon. Leather is actually the more expensive option when compared with DB Carbon. I could probably do the center console along with the dash pieces for the same price as just the leather center console from Exclusive Option.

My center console is also cracked to sh.. I’m thinking about matching the rest of the Alcantara with yellow stitching on that part. It’s cracked and delaminating pretty bad. Wouldn’t look out of place as that was originally an option. Which knowing this now I bet many would have chosen otherwise

I think that DB Carbon and MA Carbon seem to fix these issues though? I know that from factory they are a problem, just as someone mentioned it is like the coolant line glue. Haha. If you like the carbon look though, the aftermarket seems to have fixed it. Alcantara is a great option if you have lots of it in your car already, which I guess most of us do with at least seats and then a shifter and potentially a steering wheel (mine happened to be ordered with leather).
I think leather is the ideal solution to me, but I could easily go crazy with leather and spend way too much on that. Trying to figure out what actually needs to be replaced and then go from there. I guess in that case, I would just replace the center console again with plastic and figure it will last another 10 years and be happy with that.

I love carbon fiber in cars just for the contrast and the beauty, but from a long-term perspective if you plan on holding the car for a lifetime maybe rubber dash, and less carbon fiber/leather is a better option .... I know my 76 leather – was crap after many years from heat etc.
