10 gt3

I am considering white seat backs and tunnel in exterior paint (white) on my 2010 GT3; Full Leather, Red Belts, Crests Headrests, etc... Does anyone think it's too much? I think I change this thing every week.

My question is mostly about the white seat backs as I dig everything else.

Full Alcantara, and Carbon GT2 Seats (34 lbs lighter than stock), Crest on headrest, carbon or white tunnel console (wrapped in clear bra).

Don't like the carbon tunnel. Considered a leather tunnel, thought it was too soft for a GT car. Love the look of the carbon seats but I want a bit more comfort than the carbons provide. Full Leather with the extra Alcantara that comes with the option for me. So, the question remains, white seat backs for the standard sport seats?
Clear bra over the tunnel; great idea!

I would do the backs in white, no brainer. I think it is a nice looking touch on the yellow, white and red GT3. Just the seat backs and center console. You also need white stitching, it looks beautiful.

I was quoted $250 to cover the center console, handbrake trim and ash tray with Venture shield, needed to bring the console to the installer.

The painted center console scratches easily.

Just my opinion but I don't care for painted seat backs in any color, white is very bold. I saw seat backs in leather once that really looked rich. When I was ordering my car I considered alot of different options but limited my choices to "must have" versus "nice to have". Painted seat backs and a lot of the interior options in certain cars look a little too much. My must haves were zenons, full leather, ceramic brakes and black wheels. Choosing options is difficult, you will be glad when your order goes hard and there are no more opportunities for changes. Good luck.

I think that would be a sweet combination!!! Perfect even/especially the seat backs...

I really want the black wheels, unfortunately, they are not available until Dec. Mine is a Nov build. At least I can get DE Mounts, I really like the ceramics, but I think I'm going to stay with the steels. I think these are quite an improvement over the previous gen. (No insult intended to any Gen I owners.) You're right, I can't wait until my option decisionssssssssss are no longer elective

Mine will be white, red and black, no yellow. Yellow costs $8,800, right? I'll ask if Detailing Dynamics will wrap the tunnel; I'm sure they will.
