This is my 1.8EX i-Shift after installing bespoke leather. Please feel free to post pictures of your bespoke leather Civic so that we can build up a reference library for viewing. Al.

That looks very nice indeed, the silver stitching looks the dogs!

allan & Bassa, really nice interiors.

allan, did they do your doors too ?. The standard trim on my armrests is beginning to look worn already. Not very good for a seven month old car.

Hi elfa, might be a trip to rothertham for you as well

Hello Jazz. At £1000 plus, I don't think so

. Probably trade it in the not to distant future, and get leather then.

Yes, doors as well. I also thought they looked tatty even after only 2 months.

My neighbour has just looked at the interior and was 'gobsmacked'. June said " That's the first time I've known Jan lost for words!". She couldn't believe it was all done in one day.

well heres our pics - not sure about the colour though

Jobo · 29th September 2006, 17:59

Think Bassa's leather matches in really well with the paintwork.

allan40alt · 29th September 2006, 18:33

dubya there seems to be something wrong with that colour; even the seatbelt buckles are pink. The seats we saw yesterday were a lovely deep red, not pink!

Bassa · 29th September 2006, 19:13

TL's website shows a dark red and a red. The latter's swatch is attached.

dubya · 29th September 2006, 20:31

ok here goes. just a bit of fun.

the pictures are proving difficult to get the correct colour of red.

they always look too warm/ orangie.

so I've adjusted them in hue/saturation but they are still not spot on.

In the flesh they look darker - the closest is the door pic.

That looks much better. Got a bit of a shock when I saw the cerise pink!

allan40alt · 29th September 2006, 20:38

Very good

Looks great, don't they do a good job.

What was the reaction when you got home

Yes we are very chuffed with the finish & service etc.

the Missus loves it.

this is a swatch from Transforms website - we have a more contrast silver/grey stitching.

They all look amazing, and I'm absolutly in love with the black....I just wish that I had the money spare and I'd go get it now!

Bassa · 30th September 2006, 08:13

Taking colour accurate photos of a car interior is non too easy. Even website colour swatches are not usually that reliable.
My Charcoal Grey & Sky Blue leather is actually a bit darker in the flesh than it appears in my pics.

Bottom line is that you need to see either the completed article or actual swatches prior to making any decision - unless you play safe and take Allan's route by going for black.
