Some of the Pagani hides came back from Italy perforated and a couple of hides of split leather Ferrari leather were bought. "Split leather" is much thinner (still supple) and easier for our upholsterer to work with around the uppers and dash area...

Some more terrible pics from the upholsterer...I need to get him a better cell phone camera or a DSL...
Or at the very least get him to use autofocus...
There will be more CF in this car than we thought which will give more hutzpah into the interior. You can't really appreciate the Pagani distressed leather in the car...the floor mats I've been promised will be epic.

Murphy's Law hit...our upholsterer fractured his wrist about 3 weeks ago so that has slowed the project a bit.
In the meantime we test fitted the Rotiform BLQ's...everything is good there. The pics show the car at its highest suspension setting so it'll drop about and inch or inch and a half once power gets re-established for that circuit.
About 75% of the carbon fiber has been done...some parts that were CF was redone and some parts that were plastic were done up in CF.
Next step is getting as much interior and exterior detail stuff done while our upholsterer can start working...actively working on...
- steering wheel re-upholsterer
- new rear diffuser
- new rear wing

I believe they do love what they do...their passion to detail and doing things right the first time is why I've sent 7 cars to them so far.
