Here you go.

These are pics from my last 996 c2 that I built.

I did the entire dash, the door,gt3 inserts, the headliner, etc.

 

maybe we should just ask the moderator to lower the post count

 

Green Turbo, did you do the alcantara work yourself? If so, can you post how you did the dash and the door panel? That's great work.

 

oh, and I forgot, +1 baby !!!

 

Lovely avartar

 

That looks sick!

I've been thinking of doing the same sort of thing (fed up with the plastic!). I'd LOVE to hear more about how you did it, if it's the sort of thing an ordinary mortal could do themselves, if this is something you are an expert at (e.g. make a living at), where you got your supplies, how much it cost, how you got the stitching done (e.g. around the instruments), how many beers I'd have to buy you to get you to do my car, if you started with leather or plastic parts, if you think it would be easier/harder to do in leather, how well it's holding up, and what's the meaning of life...

Many Thanks,
Graham

 

Vince,

were did you buy the metal plates on the floormates?

OK, here it goes...+1.

So that makes it my third post. How many more do I need to go now?

 

Consider this a pre-emptive warning about any more "+1"s. Let's limit the discussion to alcantara-related items, please.

This is a very cool upgrade, your cars look awesome GT!

 

im seriously thinking about doing this becuase im tired of looking at my crumpled up leather dash...

 

Overall, is the durability of Alcantara on par with leather? I know manufacturers have been using it for a while now but I haven't seen info how it holds up over time.

 

We have been using Alcantara on motorcycle sport seats for many years. It holds up well.

Sweet!!!
