    I upgraded the interior on my 355. I posted about this project probably a year ago. But I finally figured out the plan this summer and the leather work started in August. Picked up the car today.

    Both the car and carbon seats were originally sourced here from other members. The leather work was done by Fernando at Prestige in North Hollywood. The leather is Connoly Autolux in the original black and red of the period. I have an F50 steering wheel on the way (stuck in US customs in holiday season purgatory) and a few other things planned.

    It's pretty stunning in person. Hope you like it.

    Your seats are twill weave carbon. I guess this is when Ferrari couldnt make up their mind on whether to use plain or twill weave carbon for the seats although they used plain weave for everything else.

    that’s wild. I was there last week to have him look at my top and interior, and saw your car parked there. He did an incredible job on your car. Congrats and enjoy in good health.

    That Fernando guy has a way with leather for sure (it looks "Marvelous" :D) . I really like the other areas done as well like the mats. All coordinates very well, something to be proud of and show off.

    This came out really nice....do you have close up pictures of the seats? I want to do my seats as well. I heard alcantara is harder to work with...do you think he can it on a 360?

    Are the stitching lines straight?
