    JoeRockhead:

    Love those seat inserts Mike. Are those Porsche factory, or aftermarket? I'be been looking at getting some custom made inserts and wondering if you have any experience with any suppliers.

    Ask Manthey, they will sell you the pepita inserts Smiley for 2,500Euros Smiley. Porsche will charge much more as the seat personalization is about 9,000Euros but there are different options you will spec on top of the seat centers. they have more than 200 different seat centers by the way. Smiley

    You may have a Techart shop closed to Monaco but the taste is questionable.

    I've seen a lot of positive reviews by happy customers for this UK based trimmer and he ships to the US. He is a lot less expensive than most.

    There are a couple of shops that will do custom inserts for anywhere from 800 Euro to $1500 USD. You can spec pattern, foam type, and even lumbar support options in that range. No point in buying inserts from Porsche, or Manthey. Smiley

    Mike S:

    Haven't posted shots of the Speedster since it arrived home. Enjoy!

    Gotta love how Mike lays low for a while and then quietly rolls in with this stunning beauty, so nonchalantly Smiley

    @Whoopsy: Thanks pal! blush

    @Ferdie: unotaz got the colour kiss

    @unotaz: Thanks buddy! wink

    @JoeRockhead: They came like that from factory. It is the pipita from the 911R with a twist broken heart

    @RC: Thank you Christian! I tried to spec it as timeless as possible smiley

    @Enmanuel: I try man 

    @Targa Tim: You both sadly ahead of me there. Not really driving it as I hate the sound and feel of the car with the new particle filters. I'm actually installing Akrapovics Evolution to fix this which will fix this! indecision

    If I missed anybody, thank you for your kind comments!
