    So my 1997 spider had a black dash that was puling in a bunch of places and I decided to take all the black leather and have it replaced with Cuio (my favorite color) and to have them re-dye and redo all the tan stuff so it looks new, de-sticky all the switches, put in a new stereo, etc... I wanted the car to look as good inside as it did outside. So I now have a Titanium / Tan / Cuio car! Pretty happy with the way its come out so far, this is all being done by Upholstery Shop and Tops www.azautotops.com and so far they have been awesome!

    But here in AZ we like to tint the windshield which turns the whole car into a pair of sunglasses and would likely eliminate the issue if it was a problem.

    I have a 612 with the same cuio dash and live in sunny Texas; no problem. That concern is overrated.

    First, that really looks good and the quality is great. Second, thanks for posting the shop that is doing your work. I have been looking for a good referral for some work I need. Third, you mention the windshield tint. Have you looked into the 80% tint that is virtually clear but cuts most of the UV and glare out? I have it on my SUV and it works really good and you can't tell it's even there.

    I have the tint on two of my Benz's I think its 50% and you don't notice it but its so nice being in the car. I really notice it not being there in cars that don't have it. This shop is great, they were recommended by the Ferrari dealer and this is where they send all their work.

    That's what appeals to me the most is that combo. Saw it on a champagne colored 456 and it was stunning.

    I really like the new cuoio dash although I dont like the lower portion tan. Plus you have to do something with that carpet it doesn't do justice for the new dash. I think black carpet would look fantastic, then the tan and cuoio would look good and the interior would really stand out with the contrast.

    This is the op car so all that matters is what he likes but he asked so. I agree with erick I would make the carpet black and then see if you still like the remaining beige leather. The new Cuoio is a great color but the beige doesn't compliment it and the original carpet doesn't really match it so now there are three colors.

    Again. Just my opinion.

    So it would either be tan or cuio carpet... My 360 has cuio seats and tan on the doors and tan carpet so I guess I am used to it :)

    The new 458 is cuio everything except the dash which is dark grey exterior is Silverstone...
