They look a lot worse now after a year or two in a lock up garage. They were taken out of the car because the wool berber was looking tatty after it got wet. Unusually they arent worn out despite being in terrible cosmetic condition.


they will look great when done the foam seems good, the trunk liner will fill the covers out nicely it does take about 4 -6 hours per seat and about 100 cable ties
......the battery tray is in my car whilst it is being welded I get it back next Friday so I'll powdercoat it and send it all the following week :D

I think that your mentalness is affecting me Ken - I looked at a rear torsion bar carrier the other day and thought: 'I could strip that and have it coated, itd be like new'... :D

I also looked at all the furry brackets and fasteners under my bonnet and thought how much better theyd look if they were all passivated.

I need some Sports Seats with a fresh retrim in 924 Carrera GT black and red pinstripes :D Tried to buy some in the last 3 months but they keep going for too much £ or are way more tatty than above.

Engine bay and front suspension is done but I now need to rebuild the rear end and fuel tank. This OCD is infectious!!

Im sure that we both know where you can get the black with red pinstripe material from Steve. Id consider selling the seats as they are provided that theyre recovered and fitted into your car, if youre interested.

Would you get the pads of the Sport rear seat covered in the same material?
