Default new leather interior (pictures)

ok in regards to the new leather installation. its on hold. i came across a little problem with the insat of the leather on the rear armrest/ cupholder. i can't get the old cover off, and now i can't get the cupholder to open more than halfway. any help would be greatly appreciated. if i dont get a reply i guess ill go to the stealer and have them take a look at it. thanks to all in advance. pictures are being uploaded tonight.

IMO that suede and two tone leather combo doesn't match-at all

Wait a minute...the backseat is done with the two-tone leather / suede backing combo?

Sorry but that combo looks all sorts of wrong....like either too much suede or too much leather, but either way, just wrong.

I hope you are just halfway done towards a full suede interior....or something...

ok lets get things straight. the two tone lether is replacing the velour material that is in my car now. the thing that is holding me up is the rear cupholder/ armrest. it's stuck and i need to get it out to remover the velour material and add the leather. this is not the way my car will look when it is done.

Post Carbon Fiber panel

I've spotted some awesome Aristo CF panels from Kazz-sports Japan. As they're looking for North America distributors, I suspect a similar kit will also be available for you all GS owners. It looks great with black leather interior. Check it out!

I bet Jon will be interested!!

Huh? Who, me? No thanks. We talked about the Kazz stuff a while back, and at around USD2,500 for the entire interior CF trim (including center arm rest), I think I could put that to good use....

....like dropping a K20A into my civic....
