Those look absolutely fantastic in that yellow car!
I just ordered the same work;Classic Soft Trim,excepting I've gone with black leather sides and perforated charcoal leather centers in my Ti Gray 8,along w the embroidered logo in charcoal.
While I'm there,it's time for the computer-cut tint (no ninny NEAR my rear defrost/antenna-I've been THERE before,lol!) and they also offer factory badges in dark charcoal chrome,so am likely to do that,also.
That yellow's gotta' make you smile every morning!

Nubo...loosk great....have a friend with a yellow cougar with same pattern leather.
you mentioned it earlier...go with WHEELSKINS for the wheel. I had one for about 2 years, they are great, but take about 45 minutes to install perfectly...a lot of sewing!

Here is the thread with my interior...
I think that their brick / black combo would also look sweet with the titanium.

I like a more low-key,old-school monotone euro approach,the red's too much for my taste.
(Damn,am I getting OLD or what?) :D
The charcoal I'm getting's only a tiny bit off of their black,I don't like gray at all in leather,and I'm offsetting the inserts with perforated leather,which will add a nice texture.
Am thinking of doing the gray headliner over in OEM smooth- match charcoal vinyl,as well,I figure it'd be easier to clean and better looking than the (ugly,imo) gray nylon-esque headliner.
I went with regular,grained leather,not the OEM 'smooth',like you did with the red/black-but I like the lower-key red that you installed,it did make me think for a minute,for sure,and it does look righteous!

I like it so far a lot. Hope it will wear well.What exactly is that 'regular, grained lether' like? I don't remember that type of leather when I selected mine at CST. It sounds nice - maybe I should have gotten that too.

The 'smooth',OEM leather doesn't really have much grain,and I like that,but I saw the 'regular',grained leather and it reminds me of Porsche leather,so I went in that direction.
I'll keep you posted on the headliner,am talking to them in the morning about that very notion.....I despise the dirt-grabbing gray nylon-covered stock unit,and I only have 670 miles on my car.

Update:
The perforated charcoal leather in the centers will be 'smooth',the outer will have more visible grain.
I went with charcoal perforated inserts,and am having the headliner changed to black at the same time (goodbye,dirty gray!)
they also offer computer-cut tint,so I added that,and they're sending all my badges to AZ to have them plated in opal-tint black pearl.
One-stop custom shop,sans motor tweaks,imo.

Nubo, would you mind uploading some more pics, it seems they have been removed from the server. I would love to see the yellow interior, I was just thinking about this for a black 8.
Thanks

I don't remember Nubo's interior specifically. Was it the yellow version of the factory red/chaparral or like the prototype? Here's mine which is like the prototype 8 minus the steering wheel & dash color.

And YES, the steering wheel cover is long gone
