 OT: LeatherZ E46 Extended Leather - Pics



Customer came by today and I installed a full extended leather kit in his E46. The OEM trim was Titan Shadow, which is known for peeling and cracking. I recovered all of the titan pieces in OEM BMW Cinnamon leather. He already had the Cinnamon boot bundle.

Beautiful work! I may be contacting you for some blue accent leather in my car sometime next year (gotta' convince the wife that this is a good b-day present).
We would (a) love to have a car at Homecoming next year with one of our interiors parked next to our tent (b) love to offer a discount for the first person willing to upgrade so we can get pics on our website.

Let me know when you (or anyone else reading this) are ready.

There are 2 routes that we could go in a Z4:

1. The MZ4 carbon leather way, multiple panels stitched together with French seams, allowing deviating thread colors:



2. Stretched single (really large!) pieces of leather like the M3 pics in this thread. No stitching.

I am going to use method (1) in my car, but who knows when that will be.

I'm thinking I would like to keep the carbon leather in my Coupe and then "fix" up the door panels to match with the dark sepang leather. There are so many textures and colors in the car it would be nice to tie some of it together.

Yes exactly like that. Maybe differernt panels but the same idea.
That work looks beautiful.
Maybe I missed it- did you do that yourself or have it done?

thanks,
