Default The unveiling of mattfeet's secret "mod"

So, awhile back I decided to have Joe at JPM Interior (Cyclon36) redo my center console and shift boot with a nice black alcantara w/ black stitching. Well, I LOVED how it turned out, but didn't want to stop there. So over winter break, I gave Joe my interior door panels to re-work in exchange for donating another set of panels. Well, he did them and they looked GREAT, but the color stitching was wrong! However, Joe said he came up with a great idea for new handles, so I had him run with it! Boy, am I ever glad I did. Look for yourself! Presenting the one and only interior door panels with this handle ever made! Done in genuine italian leather and black alcantara w/ black stitching.


Driver side panel!

Pass. side panel. Look how thin the handle is! Gives me A LOT more room side to side!

Inlaid S2000 logo. I wasn't expecting this but it looks AWESOME!

Center console/shift boot


What do you all think? Thanks for looking! The pics make it look like it doesnt match, but everything matches perfectly with the interior. I LOVE it. Subtle but much nicer feel than the OEM panels IMO. Thanks to Joe for second-to-none customer service, an outstanding and upstanding experience and an AMAZING product!!!!

so are the handles just a leather loop or is there an insert in them to make them stiff?

Vad- the handles have a 1/8" ABS plastic insert in them. It's actually a very stiff handle which has just a little bit of give to it but will not come undone.
