However, there was a solution with Status to send in the door panels as well and they would be wrapped in a matching material for an additional cost. The smallest Ring seat is the only FIA Status seat right now and there's another in the works. Keep in mind FIA is now requiring 5point harnesses as well.
Wow...I bet having them do the doors would be extra-stupid expensive. I may have to think about this whole idea.

Would it be cheaper to have a set of door panels done locally to match the seats? Then you can sell the 40th seats/door panels as a set for a pretty good chunk of change, I would assume.

Another good idea. My biggest issue is that I like the 40th red. It is just different enough to not be the typical racing red. Second issue is that I really would like to keep things as close to 40th as I can.

What I need to do is fine out who does Nissan's fabric and then slip them some sake!
