Bodyboarder81 Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 (edited) Hi all , just thought i would put up some pics of my zed which ive just had some bits covered in alcantara .... going to get the rest of the center console done so it all flows through the car . Was a bit annoyed he covered the silver metal around the gear gaitor and rings on the 3 dials but ill sort that out when i can . Hope you like it !

GMballistic Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Looks great especially the 350Z UK forum logo. Are you going to share who did the work though in case anyone else wants to get it done? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bodyboarder81 Posted August 27, 2014 Author Share Posted August 27, 2014 I've used a chap for years round my way .... He's name is vin and his work is amazing quality .... But you pay for it . 50 hours went into all that, as he said its so fiddly . Take a look at "other cars" as there are some more pics of his work there .

Stutopia Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 (edited) Looks great, much better than the plastics. Nice touch. Edited August 27, 2014 by SuperStu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ceejay29 Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Nice!! I often consider the centre consol from beneath the gearstick back and behind the seats....although it sounds expensive. Good work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pjf1985 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Wow that looks lovely, miss my alcantara in my FN2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyleR Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Hmmm, love the idea of slapping some alcantara on there, however, I think you did the wrong parts I think the steering wheel should have been done and left the airbag alone and also think the centre console should have been left and the rest of the dash done instead. Not a fan of hiding the silver strut cover either, sorry mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No worries mate , everyone likes different things having the bits I've covered is easily reversible , so when the time comes to sell ( hopefully never ! ) I can sell it all and return to standard and offset some of the cost ..... Oh and I love it ! With regards the air bag ..... It's all been rip stitched so air bag will still deploy as intended .... This was not a bodge job Edited August 28, 2014 by Bodyboarder81 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was not a bodge job Well you loving it is all that matters For the record, though, I wasn't even thinking of the operation of the airbag, just think it would look better the other way round 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
