Inside the STi - What are the Plans?


Today was a great day at the coast! In the morning we visited CustomEiss Auto Leather Design, who will be designing and upholstering the interior of the STi. We sat with Irene and Brian who presented us with a catalogue of very expensive materials that are available from CustomEiss in a wide range of colours.


After a tour of their incredible factory, that prepares OEM parts for Mercedes and VW's (to name a few), we took a look at the car to discuss the style and end result we're seeking from the project.


It was a unanimous decision that we work in three different materials, namely: black "carbon-fiber pressed" leather, deep blue alcantara and black napa leather. Stitching would be blue to highlight certain areas of the interior too.
