Most bits are for pre-facelift Zeds though (they are incorrectly labelled as 02-09). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strudul Posted May 15, 2017 Author Share Posted May 15, 2017 These all look quite good, but they all clash with the pre-existing silver interior bits, which kinda ruins it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coldel Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 I have used those pre-made leather parts before on the VX220, the fit is 'ok' and glueing on large items is an absolute pain in the backside, it sets quickly and its hard to get the alignment right when it doesn't quite fit properly. I am somewhat OCD so when I fitted mine and found bits of the leather console cover hadn't glued down properly and you could literally pinch it up with your fingers I knew 'i got what i paid for' which is certainly 99% of the law in most things in life. I have seen other people try this stuff with mixed success - you could fork out a couple hundred quid and then be left with something which when looked at properly will look crap, and then you are stuck either living with it or replacing the dash. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erni902 Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 Here is mine, all custom genuine leather re-trim in orange: Not 100% current as I have swapped the gear knob with a gloss black one. Not finished with the interior yet though. Pretty much ALL of the silver is going to be redone in gloss black along with the window switch surrounds on the doors and the vents. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 I don't think the Z interior is as bad as some say. It's not the best quality but it hasn't aged badly and suits the car. The leather trimmed dashes and door cards look great. But I personally can't stand hydro dipped carbon fibre, or any fake carbon fibre. IMO it's the tackiest, cheapest thing you can put on any car. I love real carbon fibre though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coldel Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Appreciate the time and money gone into that, but if I am honest not sure on the colour, its looks like a black/red that has bleached out in the sun? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's just the camera tbh. It's black leather with grey Alcantara with red double diamond stitch. In person it looks a lot better. In the pics, the Alcantara looks washed out red but I assure you, it is grey! I've tried adjusting the colours so you can see better.
