Yes. You can stop here. Everything else will be a letdown ?

love that armrest -- both the materials and the wider shape! can you share how much it cost? i know it was custom... any chance they will do a group order or make more?

It is expensive because it includes a new armrest and shipping plus it is Italian leather and real Alcantara. $400. When I had mine done at an upholstery shop a few years ago, they charged me $300 so there is that.

I do keep some original equipment that you can see like the armrest, OEM floor mats, steering wheel, etc.

I actually have a cover for the armrest if you want one. It is not leather and Alcantara like mine but vinyl and fake suede. Its purpose is to cover the wear area on the armrest. It has velcro straps underneath and after it's on, there will be some wrinkles on the sides. You can use a hair dryer to heat up the wrinkles and smooth them out a bit but they never go away. Send me a DM if you want it and I'll send it out to you. It is easier to install if you remove the armrest first.

The cover is black. Here is what it looks like.

I appreciate the offer, I found something on Amazon that seems to be fine. I might have preferred what you have, though. If the Amazon armrest doesn't work out I'll reach out to you.

Mark is out here this weekend helping me with some mods. We also installed the Alcantara/leather armrest plus a custom steering wheel I had Miguel make for me with extra thick padding and got the airbag pad in matching leather with silver stitching. Also covered the gloss black console trim with the fake Alcantara kit Miguel sent us. It looks a lot better in person than the photo shows it. These three really dresses up the interior. ?
