C300 W204
White leather? Wow.
Btw, you have one of the best w204s out there, if not the best. I have been following your updates on the forum for a while and I'm amazed by the creative mods you keep coming out with. Cant wait to see the newest one.
Also, sorry for going off-topic, but I've seen pics of your grill in two types (all black and only black inserts). Which one do you currently have?

White diamond center seat inserts with double white stitches all around rest of it. Also white door and armrest wrap. I nearly did this back in November before I had to move, so these past few months were spent sourcing a new vendor to do it for me. Everywhere I went, it was either shoddy workmanship or outrageous prices. Finally heard through word of mouth of this hole in the wall shop with no signage. Walked in with reservations, but he was working on several premier (TWC, Nocturnal, Hybrid) show team cars which immediately put my mind to ease. Was able to work out special pricing for myself which was very comparable to price I had worked out when I was in Bay Area.
Inserts, you'll looking at a bit over a grand. Full upholstery, figure 2-3.
That's my spare blacked out grille I carry around.
I usually roll with my CF vinyl wrapped grille as my daily as the vinyl is more resistant to rock chips compared to my painted blacked out grille. I usually use the blacked out grille for shows though.

Paint me jealous. Dealers here are infuriating with getting interior conversions done. I thought I had finally finished my negotiations and was ready to send it to production, but they are stalling on giving me a turn-in date now. I'm guessing they are lining up the materials, but damn.. German companies suck at customer communication. The waffle stitching looks great!

Looking good as always!
The white leather will look really sharp against the black interior.
It reminds me of the Designo Porcelain leather on the S-and CL-class, one my favorite MB interiors.

I can tell it's going to look great!
Wow! Your floors are clean!!! How do you clean them? Mine has lots of little dirt pieces that are stuck there and hard to get off. Like I have to pull them 1 by 1 if I want to get them off.

Yeah, steering wheel is probably next on the list which should finish off the interior. Pushing it off though as I'm currently in the market for another car (maybe e92) project with this one nearing completion

The hole in the wall is in Alhambra, CA, but that's in socal. Since you're in the bay, I sourced one out to Concord in east bay which did one of my friend's upholstery work. Think they were called Concord Auto Upholstery.

Progress! Door panels we're doing tomorrow. Front seats are in, but didn't get around to taking pics installed. Will do so tomorrow.
