Default First post and my DIY leather interior

First post on rennlist, but long time reader. I also have a lot of posts on that other 986 forum

1999 Box with 88k miles, 2 1/2 years of ownership and still loving it!

Thank you!

I made a new grip piece for the e-brake today. I think it looks much nicer
I still need to trim and tuck the end.

Super nice work! I am impressed with your resourcefulness!
I really like the white cars, mine are both silver ( I know, big shock there )

Thank you, sir
The truth is that I just have too much free time, especially in winter.

I'm quite the fan of Seal Grey and Arctic Silver...maybe we can work something out...?
