So excited!! My e24 rears are all done and matchy matchy!!

Pics do not do this justice! Can't wait to get these amazing pieces of furniture in Tesoro!

(Notice the suede strap... that was a touch of the "02princess"  ;-)

Very nice...are the seats' center sections suede?

Hi Mike! Yes... the seats centers are suede with stainless grommets and outside bolters are all leather with french stitching. I'm proud! :-)

Very nice Lisa. What are you planning for your headliner and door panels?

[PaulTWinterton]

A radical departure from the conventional, I must say.

They are different. I didn't realize you were building a full-on art piece. Very cool.

I've watched your other posts and I'm looking forward to further updates. Keep the pix coming.

Looking forward to seeing the car when its all done!

They look spectacular, how did the prefit go ? I had to trim the outside corner of the fiberglass buckets to clear the wheel wells to get mine to fit closer in my 71. I love the look & the grommets look ace.

Those look like something from a new Audi. That's a compliment! They're very classy and unique. The grommets really set them off. I do wonder how they'll be for a long day in the saddle, though... Will you look like you got a hug from an octopus?

Very nice indeed!

Those look like something from a new Audi.

 

 

Or an old GT40...well at least two of them;))

 

 Those really look great!

Beautiful work. That's something to be proud of!

[TobyB]

Yes- but you deserve at least token hasslement over your thread title!

For a second I was afraid you were turning into the second coming of Otis...

 

hee hee, of course...

Very nice work.  They will look really nice in your o2.

 

With that said, seems like I read a post that suggested "prime is so fine....." or some such months ago.  Really I am too lazy to go back and check and see when it was.....I am guessing your car must be in paint (or nearly there).  Legends of the Autobahn is in 8 weeks or so?  Not a lot of time to get everything back together, but then you already knew that.  TIme goes by fast, I am already starting to semi-panic for Monterey next year (more time but my car has a lot of work to do).  I figure if my car isn't in paint I can liver vicariously through yours.  Keep up the good work.

Looks great.  Who did the upholstery work?

[Lisa.02P]

Very nice Lisa. What are you planning for your headliner and door panels?

 

Thank you! 

 

I haven't decided on the headliner yet.. I think I'm going to keep that original white. It'll give that crisp clean look and it won't be like I'm sitting in a dark hole...  

 

Door Panels.... I may just keep the ones I have and get them painted black or redone... (they are the 2 tone marine blue) 

I do like the two tone look... and may incorporate the sued if I do them custom, but I have seen door panels that have been done with suede on them and they just don't look right to me... So we'll see... ! I'll be sure to post pics of the interior progress! ;-)
