Ive seen a two tone Black Upper Dash and the lower parts are in Carrera Red looked good but needs plenty of Carbonfiber parts to work well.

That looks nice, I would add blk stitching to the terra sections.

Lipstick Red with Black photo. Sounds like a nice build to me are you doing any carbon fiber as well? Did they give you a build date yet?

Every picture I've seen of terra makes it look red - in person it's much more subdued.

i didn't want 2-tone like that, more like on the older amg models, i wanted to get everything in black(the dash, console, seats) but with red insert through the middle of the seat, on the part of the door and maybe red stiching though out the dash.

The PCM in black looks great. How do you go about ordering it that way?

Ive seen that done on older Porsche's with the pipping on the outers of the seat matching the stitching looks great, but I dont know if its available on the 911 (997).
