    Two more updates for today:

    Alcantara door cards starting to get installed, this time they came with rear shades so I don't have to swap the inserts into my original door cards.





    (nevermind the shiny seat, it's lathered in Leatherique)

    And orange seat belt webbing finally getting stitched up.





    Some small things coming up and I'm pretty sure another C5-first mod soon. Some might not care, might blow some of your minds

    Meow, did you just swap the alacantara part over to your OG door card? Also, are you doing the rear belts too? They are a pain. One last question, how close will the rolling diameter be between the front and rear?
    Ten years ago if you had 500HP you were the man. Now days that means you bought a new car.

    I didn't, these were all minty and have sunshades so I didn't have to. I did that with my rear cards going from grey leather inserts to black though.

    Rear belts will be done, haven't pulled them out yet and don't even know how yet. Hopefully it's not TOO bad. Remember I only have two rear seats so I don't have to mess with any belt in the middle (there is none).

    Rolling diameter is .66% different. 285/35/19f 325/30/19r I case you're wondering, though I think I stated the specs before.

    So you need to modify the hubs up front too? 285 is alot of tire up there......

    Just to clarify everything, i'm having entirely new hubs made that will look OEM on the backside and accept Porsche centerlock wheels on the frontside. For now I'll be modifying my existing flares in a somewhat secretive way (all will be revealed). But I'm working on new, much wider carbon fiber flares for the future. My rear track will be wider than the front like many hypercars.
