Hi all thought I would share this with you.
Finally ordered new interior for our CC
it is being done in July 2011 due to the companys extensive work going on at the moment.
The company is called stanley trimmers and they normally specialise in Bentley interior, so I have gone for a bentley style.
I will be having the door cards, rear interior quarters, A pillars, Dash, Armrest and the plastic round the handbrake / gearknob done in leather too. Then custom made high gloss body coloured centre console and heater vents
What do you think to the choosen style?
new interior ordered :)

Re: new interior ordered :)
Definately will post pics.
cant believe I have previously spent more on a pair of recaros than it costs for a full custom retrim
only thing I have to decide on now is the Alloys. I want it classy, so not going with the typical 18" alloys seen on most cars. i will go a standard alloy colour, instead of going black, due to the champagne colour of the car, thinking Audi or Merc alloys.....
I would like to lower it, but all the lowering kits I have seen really stiffen the ride, which isnt my intention, the car isnt driven hard at all. So I would like the low look, but the current comfort.
Any recommendations on these fronts?

Re: new interior ordered :)
btw, not planning on standard front seats for the retim......
I have three types of seat in mind to buy and have retrimmed to go in the megane cc.
1> Mercedes SLK Seats, retrimed in above Bentley Style. (shape of seats can be seen here: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/MERCEDES-BENZ-SLK-AMG-SEATS-/300485258996?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item45f6512ef4 I will be buying a cheaper damaged set though!)
2> Aston Martin DB7 Seats, again retrimmed in above bentley style (shape of seats can be seen here: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ASTON-MARTIN-DB7-2000-FRONT-SEATS-/110581122692?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item19bf260684 )
3> Porsche 911 GT Seats, again retrimmed in above bentley style (Shape of seats can be seen here: http://l.yimg.com/dv/izp/porsche_911_carrera_cabriolet_2008_interior_frontseat.jpg I have managed to find a set of these seats as bare frame for just £30 as they were in a car fire! but frames are totally intact)
Questions I have are:
1> Has anyone tried fitting seats in their CC from another car, other than custom subframes, any other problems?
2> If I go for the SLK seats, is there a way to rig up the air scarf to use in the CC?
As you can probably tell, I am going to be going all out on this CC, and I have a lot of elegant classy ideas, But I dont want it to look modified, I want it to look as though it could have been factory options, i.e fit together perfectly.
