Finally installed my refurbished console and new black leather handbrake and gear stick gaiters.

Obviously to personal taste, but showing here in case you were thinking of this option:

Quite like that. I've been waiting for enough time to do mine.

Looks great!
Funny, I just got mine from the paintshop (well.. Before x-mas actually), will put up pics of mine too.
You're not tempted to do the centre console aswell now..? smile

Very nice Mark_S. cool I'd like to say that your Coop is definitely one of the cooler ones on the forum.

In fact, I am pleased to say that it is on my list of Top Ten FCCUK Forum Fiat Coupes or TTFCCUKFFC for short.

I mean, standard Coops looks nice enough in the flesh, so your lowered, tastefully modded sprinty (which let's face it, is amongst the most striking of the standard colours anyway) is a real head turner.

I often find myself thinking how better my life would have turned out if I too had got a sprinty. cry

Wow what praise blush

It has been at Roger's for two weeks for power steering pump, gearbox, visodrive, drive-shafts etc.

Really started missing it on my drive after a week; back and so nice to drive and nicer inside as well laugh

I started looking at Porto's but this one came up; I certainly have no regrets - sprint blue and broom yellow do it for me.

I like the passenger seat colour scheme - are you intending to do the rest to match?

Not sure what you mean? The front and rear seats match. Not planning on any more interior work now.

Still, like the seat scheme, custom made?

Yes, seats were originally done for Roger at PowerItalia and eventually ended up with me smile
