The raw paint is a dead ringer for Bordeux, but both the clear and the dark grey plastic under it tend to make it look darker. I have a piece of Bordeaux here, and might experiment with light-colored primers, etc.

I’ll have to give it a better look in sunlight, but it’s pretty darn close. The leather itself is a chameleon. Depending on the light it can look anywhere from bright to blood red.

Really wanting a red one. Requested before but how do you know where to send? Let me know please.

Sorry, must have missed the first request. Just put you on the list. I'm fairly overwhelmed with requests and am heavily prioritizing people who are active on Carpokes (as a way to give back to those helping to build our new community). I'm planning to put out a more formal policy to this effect, but given the current back-log, in general, people with avatars and 10 or more genuine posts (unrelated to asking for these covers) are the ones getting these covers now. Post some things of interest, set up your avatar, refer a freind, and/or otherwise become an active Carpokean and you'll have your cover before you know it. Good things come to active Carpokeans!

p.s., you can PM me your address after 3 posts, so I'll have it when it's your turn...

Hi all, you are waiting for a Mode Dial cover, please see this thread:

Unless I’ve missed it, all pics of the mode dial cover have been on LHD cars…..have you supplied any to UK owners - volunteering to post a RHD pic….

Please post a photo but I’m pretty sure the drive mode knob would be the same.

Ok.....so here we go....and probably no surprises...note have already made my own "red button"
Also notice it is the first alcantara wheel. Any love for alcantara?

Just installed the cover. It’s awesome I love it. Also the quality of the dial, the paint and even the presentation/box are great. Thank you very much Tom!

Thanks for posting photos. I have the same color. The fit is perfect. Looks totally OEM minus the P-tax.
