I'm bringing back this thread for some opinions. I like the hydro-dipped carbon fiber on the console. I'm also looking at black alcantara (ultra-suede really) on the door pocket lids, and grey alcantara (ultra-suede again) on the console arm rest and leg pad. What do you think?

I re-covered my pocket lids, arm rest and leg pads a few years ago now with black alcantara I also covered the windscreen surround too







Sorry the picture quality isn't great but the alcantara is holding up well!

Question: Is that real Alcantara or the UltraSuede stuff?
