I'm contemplating doing a hydrographic dip in a blue/grey carbon fibre look. Think that'll match nicely with the blue on the outside. Maybe you can do something like that? Black/Dark Purple? Only do it to a few pieces as well, so maybe centre console, few of the door panels etc.

I reckon I'm just going to end up copying Dwayne (except I may leave some other bits he did like some of the aircon vents/ash tray), only just a slight colour change tbh. He already got his done... pics are here. He's done so much to his FTO, reckon it's by far one of the best looking ones in Australia haha.

Momo's are a hundred bucks for a good conditioned one.

Edit: Personally I like the FTO steering wheel, the horn is just too brittle :(... so idk steering wheel is on my lower priority atm. Maybe would make a nice christmas gift.

      Proseats also mentioned something about door inserts I believe, so you may be able to get in contact with them to have them send you something quality for the FTO. They also do leatherette seat trims for the FTO custom. For the entire package, front/back seats + door inserts he quoted $600. A majority of the FTO seat covers you will see that are leatherette will be from pro seats.

      Looks nice bro, I reckon when I get to painting my engine cover I'll just do the letters in blue and leave the black. I'm going for a black/blue theme ahahaha x]
