Crocodile Interior Upgrade from Vilner Too much?
Five different exotic materials including crocodile, don't think PETA's going to like this one but I think it looks pretty good. Reminds me of a well aged trunk.
What do you think, love it or hate it?

I actually like it, but I think that it would not look good with all exterior colors.
I would also replace the suede with leather. Suede looks OK, but it is
horrible from longevity point of view if we are talking about areas that
come in touch with body (seats, armrests etc.) Of course this is not
an issue with some nice suede headliners in some AMG editions.

Totally awesome. Can you say approximately how much it cost? Was it done in the US?
I'd like to do something similar with my '04 SL 600. I would leave the suede out, but all else rocks, especially the croc accents
