Great looking car man. You are the guy that had Chris swap all of the parts over, right? And I am beginning to love the black on tan/camel look.

And if so, do you remember the guy on e30tech like a year ago that was wondering if you had the lower part of the knee bolster for sale? That was me, and do you still have it? I'd love to buy it off of you if so.

hah, sorry Dave.

How is it holding up? I just put a down payment for Kevin's services and I have a month to decide the pattern and material I want. Just looking for ideas

Oh man I love interior talk. What are you thinking? What color is the exterior?

my car is sterling silver. It currently has oem grey sports interior. throw me some ideas!

So far I only have m3 stitching in mind, perforated centers,

I did consult with Kevin about the issue with leather. Based on my habbits and lifestyle, he recommended I go with OEM vinyl instead of leather. Moreover, because I am using the car as a DD and having only time to clean it once a month, having a leather interrior would only last me 2 years tops before i wreck it.

PS. I love staring at your car. It is an inspiration. Though i'll never have a Dinan turbo, I'm trying to restore it with Dinan parts and make it a dinan car as well. Keep up the good work dave! keep inspiring!

The entire car is hotness, but I simply can't tear myself away from that interior. I just recently crossed into the E30 ownership world and that interior was a major inspiration in my taking the plunge. Awesomely unique ride; congrats.

Vinyl is a good idea. I've heard from many that with some vinyl you cant even tell the difference when compared to leather. I DD my e30 as well, and only have a year on the interior. Hahah... I guess we shall see how long it lasts me. I condition it with this oil based stuff, that worked pretty well for me last car.

I have always wanted to do a Silver or gray car with a bright red interior... something like this:



Also maybe a dirty gray color might work too. Like the e36 mulbery (spelling?). Maybe even a redish brown color? At least those would be the thoughts goin through my mind if I had a silver car. Speaking of which, I really have wanted to do a silver e36 recently.

Good luck on the hunt for Dinan parts! And thanks for the kind words man, I appreciate it.
