Hello,
I am restoring a customers car and I believe the seats were redone in vinyl.
Looking for pics of the original leather colors, wood and carpet for Malaga red.
TIA,

The carpets in my Malaga coupe were originally goldbraun, very gold. I now have a medium brown/dark brown that is close to BMWs original light/dark brown which is NLA. Leather could originally be a dark brown or also saddle brown.

Thanks I was going to email you. He wanted to go with a light saddle like the saddle that comes in Ferraris, think that will devalue the car should he want to sell it? Also he was thinking french seams instead of piping. Are the oem carpets multiple pieces like the ones advertised on another thread. I thought they were 2 piece from factory? What about the wood trim dash etc?

Carpets are multiple pieces, you can check available german loop colors on GAHH or World Upholstery. I am the wrong person to ask regarding French seams, I like the original, changing it could devalue it but others will disagree. Don't know how light the Ferrari color is but many coupes, including mine don't have the original color. Bela on this site refurbs all of the wood, many happy customers, search his name.

I have great German suppliers for Loop I just need to get an idea of colors. Thanks bela reached out to me regarding the wood refurb. This is Saddle, I did the boxes in this 430. They are all french seamed, basically a double to stitch.

Here is a pic of my old malaga CS circa 1987, the light is bright so the interior is probably not that light, more like the color of the driver door panel.

Steve,
Thanks I think that is more like what he had in mind. Seems like the interior colors are all over the board.
