new interior idea any thoughts

I am wanitng to replace my shift boot and e-brake boot with this http://www.uucmotorwerks.com/ultrasuede/ and my steering wheel with
http://www.turnermotorsport.com/p-17...FWHZQgodeC0Alg and i am considering covering my whole dash and center counsle with either Alcantara or a something vary similar all with the same stitching i know it can be done and i have a friend who did interiors for porsche for a living who has agreed to teach me to do it for free. what im wanting to know is has any one elts done this and if so do they regret it or is it the best thing they have done to their interior?

and yes i understand Alcantara is expensive as can be.

also on a side note if anyone has some non torn stock Blue front seats im looking to replace mine my cars seats are blue and i have yet to see another E30 with blue interior so if anyone has some extras or can help me locate some cause i cant find any.

Little hints of the fabric is nice. Shift boot, e-brake boot + wheel will be just right. I say you keep your dash nice and simple so that your $$ pieces will stand out.

yeah it was a thought but i just want to fix thos enasty cracks in the dash and i do not want to buy a whole new dash cause id rather not do that lol but what have people done to fix those cracks without making it look like crap?

You can google it. A few people have DIY's on how to fix dash cracks. I think replacing the dash is just a little north of 100 dollars if you do it yourself.

quick, quick before you forget- where did you buy a dash for that price ?

They are sold on the forums a lot. It's a matter of just cruising the for sale section. As I recall you can still get them from dealers too. But it might be harder in South Africa.
