    It's definitely much nicer (especially since I don't like tan interiors) but I'm not sure I get it.... why did you do this? Why not just trade for one with Black/red stitch interior? instead of changing the original spec of the one you have? I mean, it's cool; looks way better but I just don't get it.

    Because 2k mile 2011 Italias in possession of factory ECU tune (w/crackle/pop run-on) don't grow on trees...

    And because it wallowed on mkt for 1+ yr, no buyer due to awful interior spec, so picked it up at a bargain.

    Maybe your just not familiar enough with all the details and by doing it this way turns out to be just what he wanted at a more advantageous investment. Or maybe it's just too easy to go swap one out. I like his style.

    Must admit, getting to spec it EXACTLY as if I was ordering new in 2011, was a lot of fun... wrinkle in time.

    Not to many people have what it takes to do what you did, the anxiety and unknowns would take the weak kneed person out real quick. Great execution.

    That looks really great. I have to ask - Who did the interior work? I'm curious because the leather looks spot on to factory and so does the color of stitching. I was looking at having a few items "cleaned-up" on mine and no one could guarantee the leather or stitching would match.

    Where did you get all the new interior pieces? And where did you get the seats plus make them work with the car?? I’ve looked at replacing my sport seats with factory racing seats and it seems to require witchcraft or magic, depending on who you ask! [emoji38]
