I really like the contrast of the black and twist. It seems to be the standard for light leather in the PF, although I've seen a few LHD FLs with this combination. I've been contemplating building such a thing for Big Red as I don't like light coloured dashboards. The twist leather tunnel sides and glovebox / lower dash are still fine so if I can find some matching door cards I can maybe replicate the look with a standard vinyl dash.

We all love a WITW thread, and intriguing to see what you can do mix and match wise.

Too right, Sean. These must be the most read posts on the forum. Certainly loads more interesting than Harry & Meghan (not that I watched it)!
