A Pop of Color (Red Content Inside)

Admittedly I'm posting this simply to share my enjoyment because Mrs. CRYA wouldn't have any appreciation for it. I know taste is subjective but I'm really happy with the red accents. This all started because the car was new to me and I needed to swap out the ragged alcantara wheel. DCTMS had a PFL wheel on special that they made me a deal on, so that's how I wound up with a red stripe. I had no idea at the time that these other red items were out there until I stumbled across a recent F/S thread. Then if course I knew I HAD to have the belts and mats. Special thanks to Rob for deciding to part ways with the items and helping me through install. I got the driver's side bolted up last night. Hope to tackle the remaining bits soon. I'm stoked how the red bits of the wheel, belt, and mat all come together. Really makes a differences from all the dour black. For now, if you like red/black, enjoy.

Nice! I'd give those seats some love with Leatherique Rejuvinator Oil. That stuff does wonders...

Thats weird, I just got my trims done mid last year. I was originally going to get an edition 1 and those have the red stitching, so the one thats black with red reflective flakes would have been sick. The p31 I got had original cf trim so I just matched it to that in the end.

Looks like your b-pillar trim and seat need a little love so the red accents stand out first and foremost.

The steering wheel, mats and seat belt look great.

I blame the light. Haven't tried Leatherique yet. When I got the car I'd been plying it with the Swissvax stuff and some of that elephant fat so I'll try that next!

Looks great, awesome that the belts bolted in - pretty sure you are a pioneer putting the red FL belt part numbers into a PFL and all looks great with that wheel you picked up!
