Colored Fiber Options -

The Ford reds are possible targets for a custom fiber.
Here are a few pics from a custom AMG interior, that went from a drab walnut burl to this -

The color was developed to match a Ferrari leather that went into the car.

Custom Fiber Examples -

These fiber parts were modified to match the Aston Martin 'Tungsten' body color. When we first presented these at Galpin Aston, their team went crazy.

To further explain by example, we'll post some images from projects that featured custom color-matched fiber.

is this (velocity blue, I think) the only color? Or is it lightening?
As answered, it is lightning blue.
Is it the only color-match available? No

Matching fiber weaves to colors targets , can be tedious, but achievable. The only class of colors that don't transfer well, are pastels.

So, if you're itching for that highly personalized expression in fiber, your prayers could be answered.

So it sounds like you are able/willing to try to match colors. It looks like I'm going to end up with a Leadfoot with the Recaro interior. I'm guessing you'd be able to come up a color that is close to the Recaro blue in the seats?

Who showed you their privates??!!! :eek:

No one showed privates. They inputted them.

Wait, that doesn't sound better.


Anyway, these steering wheels look spectacular. I think I need to wait a bit longer though before spending that kind of money. I've had my truck less than a year, and should save some upgrades for when I've got a serious itch to improve things.

It's just my opinion, but I don't think the recaros and steering wheel need to be an exact match. Shades of blue, again my opinion, tend not to clash badly for whatever reason. Shades of other colors, red, green, yellow,etc, due tend to clash. As an example, I don't think Velocity Blue and Performance blue clash, but Ruby red and Race Red do clash.
