Wez Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 There was a ChargeSpeed car I think, which had white/cream leather interior, maybe try a search for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waiting for pics I have got a bloke near me and he can do it for £600 but he is really local and used to work for Bentley:) so his work is really good quality.

Matt H Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 Something I planned to do but never got around to it as yet due to all the past ball ache and expense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackso11 Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 I like the black one looks very nice. Not the bright ones though. Oh, and white!?! that must be a b!tch to keep clean! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcAB10 Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 i'll be getting mine done at some point, black with red stitching to match my retrim, i got quoted £750 but i would have to remove the dash myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
original_amo Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 I own the one with the white interior, the dash is a real pain to do. Stitches are all down to the trimmer depending on where they thin the leather down for the contours. But some stich work can be created for characteristics. £600. Is a very very good price.

Dave Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 didnt C.J have a white leather dash in his blue supra maybe hes still got a pic ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marbleapple Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 Would there be a risk of damaging it if you had to take the dash off? I was always messing with my dash to replace the led bulbs (dash conversion), dials etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest chargespeedgirl Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 ive got a cream dash, its a pain wen the sun hits it at times. looks great and i have loads of stitching detail. make sure the quote is for leather and not vinyl, leather is easier to mould so will get a better fit. pics of mine are on fast car website i think and banzai.
