Looks really nice!

I am thinking about leather and yours looks really nice. I was concerned about having a colour which blends in with the interior trim but yours doesn't and still looks great. Food for thought

Realy nice job.

Hi there

Your very right indeed, my leather doen't blend with the trims as a normal car interiour decoration for manifacturer do not venture into such styling as an architect would do at his home !! Now i do work with architects as an engineer in air conditioning for buildings and we see alot about inside decos. The ambiant i wanted to give in a car was something i could feel at home, I designed my home with very modern trims with a marriage between light colored oak furnitures with brushed steel equipments wooden flooring ..etc ... and what works well in a house will also do well inside a car

In fact i wanted the seats to be brown leathered in the middle part of the seats, where we sit exactly as in pictures and black leathered on the sides of the seats but my wife thought it was kind of old fashon

(8 years younger than me

) but it all depends on what you seek as a result ! Either you do it standard, eg : black leather with aluminuim trims (good choice

) or either give some enlightment to your inside ambiant thus giving you some warm and cosy feeling to it

But it dose take some risk to it and having my wife by my side was a help

Cheers !!

Hi,

Very nice job and looks very different to the dirty cream one sold in Ireland. I went for the black leather option which really suits the car as it's black too, but that looks like a connolly Tan colour and would have went for that if it was available. France only option maybe?

Hi tpeachma !
In fact, Honda (France) works with independent leather companies which installs leather for cars like porches, R&R and even ....... the Honda

They only charged me 1700 euros as the car has been orderd new, if not, they would have charged me near 3000 euros !!
This make me a lucky chap !!

Hi Philippe

Your seats look awesome !! I have just got my car fitted with the same type of seats , black and orange , check them out in my gallery

I saw some orange seats in a Jazz at the dealership and decided to do it too. I paid around 3000 Euro for mine. Well worth it !

Wheelchair · 28th September 2008, 21:27

One word, Amazing!!
