There will be a seam on the backside just like all the other wheels I do...there has to be. What i do though is do some airbrushing over the seam to help blend it so it looks pretty nice. I'll take pics of both sides once it totally done and cleared. Couple more days.

Why not do the seam below where the sticking of the leather used to be?

This way you do not see anything from the outside.

Because then you would see it when in the car. Backside u don't see it at all and maybe a little from outside the car.

I think it looks good and will go with most Zs (maybe not yellow or blue). A shift knob to match will help a lot.

Here's the blue...The blue is kinda dark once the resin is applied. Its very subtle but in the sun you can really see it. I have the center blade of my wing done in it. I'll snap a pic of it tonight....here's a strut bar cover done in it.

This red wheel will be totally done and stitched back up probably Monday or Tuesday. I may try to get my hands on a couple other interior parts and make it a whole kit to sell...unless someone who picks this one up wants to get their interior to match, maybe the console/window switch pieces....also, I have a plain black cf wheel that is done and ready to ship. Its up for sale in the classifieds.
