I purchased new sport seats from Waldemar that recently arrived. Black with silver contrast stitching (Polar Silver 993). I was able to source the same leather hides & stitching for my interior "refurbishment". I am converting a lot of the interior to leather and am looking for input as to how much & where I should be considering for contrast stitching to blend well with the seats? I don't want to overdo it but I would like just a bit, subtly, to go with the new seats. I appreciate in advance the suggestions. ~Dave
It is all opinion but my take is anything more than silver stitching would be too much. Look at 997's with various leather parts done in black with silver stitching and you may find that is plenty. My 997 has that. You do not need anything more or it will in time just be "too much". These cars have simple clean and refreshing interiors and trying to decorate them up just doesn't work. The clean non fussy styling both inside and out is why we like these cars.
Great seats. "11quarts" for an oil change?

Absolutely…only silver stitching and a very minimal amount. Keep it clean and classy.
Yep…11 Quarts is a play on the oil/air cooled thing:-)
Picked her up this afternoon. Beyond pleased with the work done by George Baloian Levon Interiors. Meticulous work that was catalogued and recorded during the process. He handed me with a thumb drive today with all the details/photos of the progression.
Please post more photos, these photos have a green hue to them, hard to tell...i was thinking about doing something similar with my C2S , i know the oem dash of a 993 has pretty complex double stitching thats hard to replicate- Looks like you didn't do the dash correct? Personally i don't think colored stitching works well with the classic vibe of the 993 , but i'm still thinking of adding some leather as you did.
Looks nice, but curious why you didn't do the door tops & dash? To my eyes there's a big variation between vinyl & leather textures but that's just my eyes..
