I did not take this opportunity to swap to LEDs. I’m going to see how often I even use the bulbs before deciding if LEDs are worth it or not. I’m in the same boat as you, these weren’t working when I bought the car, so this is already brighter than what I’m used to!

Nice fit & finish. A bit too much CF for my liking, especially on the center console, but it's obviously very detailed.
I'd love to see a proper leather dash upgrade on these...

agreed. I’d be willing to donate my ap1 for experimentation.

what do you think of a Grand Touring style, saddle brown leather look?


Some German inspiration

And just a little more GT than touring

If ya'll could see the cost and develpment time it would take to make a leather covered dash for an S2K that looks decent you would barf. You would need to buy a dash that has been modified and covered or supply your dash to be modified and covered. Interior pieces need to be designed for leather from inception because of the workability and thickness of the covering. Ppl who can afford such things buy F-Types and 911s. Whoever comes up with the composite or composite like interior parts can meet a significant owner base's astetic and budget needs.

Got the spray done finally. Been slacking, plus I bought another car and tore it apart...
I'll get the suspension arms and subframe painted next and get this thing back together.

Thinking too much about the car when I'm at least 2 months away from a drive.
