Thanks! But I think most 916 owners have good taste

[charlee 314]

Got the carpet and the new gear knob yesterday... It's going to be a busy weekend

Can't wait to see the result!

Ok, here's a little preview

It's not finished yet and the gray mats are just beautiful

Perfect!!! :thumbsup: I want to make you one small question....What lowering springs did you put on your GTV?

[Aleš H. 0]

If you'll ever be looking for a buyer for those gray mats - Look no further I'll be glad to take them off your hands.

Great red carpet BTW! Was it hard to remove?

Can't remember really, some Dutch brand. Got them really cheap froma friend but will get Eibach in the future.

No problem for the mats

It's not so much of problem to get it out as to get it in properly

your interior rework is a jawdrop. chapeau!

with no intention of hijacking your thread, i'm on the verge of selling a kidney for a 2004 P3 2.0JTS GTV. i never quite understood why they decided to ditch the great looking center console of the P2 for the one on the P3. therefore my question is, how can i (/ who could / how much would it cost to have it done) adapt a P2 console for all the commands on the P3?

I've photoshoped some images to show what i'm looking for (i like the flatness of the P2 - the P3 has an indentation where the ventilation controls are. and most importantly, i love the 'ALFA ROMEO' logo and line on the P2. that's a must have ) )

btw, what does the second button do on the P3? (the one just to the right of the ASR button)

[charlee 314]

Well, you could cut the part you need from the P3 console and adapt it to the P2 one. You would need to cut out the same shape from the P2 console and glue it together with some strong glue, possibly epoxy. You would need to even it out with plastic putty and paint it, but if you paint the whole part, you'll lose the original script... but you can make a decal in the correct size afterwards.

I think you would have to do that yourself...

I like the P3 console actually

[charlee 314]

Just cleaned and conditioned the seats with Gliptone. That stuff is amazing!

Some new pics from today!

[Thanos 193]

awesome photos!

If I may bump in...

Same car, same location, same camera (well, iPhone ) but perhaps a bit different, somehow rougher view of the same matter.

[ALXege 75]

Those pics are made with an iPhone ?! Gosh, seems like mine is a cheap copy then! )

Stunning car!

Have you sprayed your taillight or something? If so, please do post details

[charlee 314]

iPhone 4S and a bit of sharpening in Photoshop.

The tailight was sprayed with transparent red paint, and then a couple coats of lacquer, an then polished.

[ALXege 75]

Transparent red paint? How is that?!

Are turning lights and reverse light somehow affected? Do they turn red or orange?

Could you please post a pic with them on?

Thanks!

[charlee 314]

Reverse lights are not pure white but the turning lights are normal.

This is what I used. http://www.motipdupli.de/index.php?id=ipg_1021&L=2

[Afrosrodos 12]

Fantastic photos!!! Well done! :happy0045:

[charlee 314]

Thanks!

Congrats. With one of the most ugliest color for GTV, you somehow made your car one of the most attractive ones in our little 916 stable

I really, really like it…

[charlee 314]

IMHO, one of the best colours for the GTV

[Thanos 193]

come on marg... This is not an ugly color.

It is just not.... red!
