    Which do you guys like better, on the diagonal, or on the horizontal?

    Without being in the car for context, I really like it on the diagonal. The way the pattern matches the line of the door pull really struck me when I first saw it.

    That said, it may be different in the car with all the other competing lines.

    Yeah, I'm not into sneakers and those are pretty rockin'. Came across them randomly while looking for fabric samples for you.

    I have been considering this. It's far easier to get than the tartan.

    BMW already did the houndstooth

    It was a lower end option that is just super cool to me. The matching houndstooth sport seats are my favorite

    Well I guess my idea was well founded, in that case.

    For those of you who liked the simple aluminum door panel, check this one out.

    Throw some suede on there - maybe the door pockets - to make it an homage to a cliche professor's tweed jacket?

    I've never been a fan of aluminum interiors. For a race car I can see it but for a street car it seems a bit too clinical, working industrial kitchen for me. I like a warmer, softer feel like with cloth. Hell, I'm not even a real big fan of leather interiors.
