Hey everyone,
I am doing another project for our cars and this time I am going for the interior. I have come up with something really interesting but I need your help.

I Will announce what the idea is in about 2 months but I need to see how many different color interior options where out there? I have here two pictures of the 2 cars I have right now.

Bascially I need to see what kind of colors were available and materials. This will help me determine what colors to develop.

Please trust me you will like the idea I have coming.....

My #1 1991 Audi V8 5 Speed
This is suppose to be a platnium leather interior.

Audi #2 Audi 100 Sport turbo quattro avant
This is not quite up to date but the wood trim is now a V8 and the seats are cloth sport seats with the "quattro" logo on them. This is suppose to be a very rare car.

The old story is that RR cows were kept away from barbed wire to prevent blemishes in the leather.

More to the point, I believe Connelly leather is the only auto leather which is still "vat dyed". In other words, the leather is given a bath in dye and the color goes right through.

Most modern cars, American/European and Asian, get the color of their leather from lacquer. Consequently, when it cracks the underlying leather shows in a different color. Sort of like scuffing a pair of cordovan shoes.

Tan leather w/ "chocolate". Don't know the official name of the color, but the interior is in nice shape for 18 yrs and 204,000 miles! Two or three minor rips here and there . .
