RECARO - "Purple Drink"- Custom Alcantera Pole Position by GT Motoring

One of our customers came to us with a out of the ordinary request. I want purple Recaro Pole Positions for my car. After some searching around for some material samples and getting some options we were able to find some alcantera/ultrasuede fabric that fit the bill. Kevin, the customer also wanted a contrast stitch and Recaro logo to add some contrast to the seats. To add some texture and breathability perforated ultrasuede was used on the center section cushions.

We can't wait to see this set of seats installed and we'll invite the owner to post some pics if possible. Enjoy :tipwink:

We should have another customers done here next week with photos as well. We'll be sure to share those as well!

They made of Promethazine?

chuxdelux · 11-20-2012, 07:40 PM

Nice, should go well with a Crown Royal bag for a shift boot.

All kidding aside, they look great. You guys work is impeccable!

Interesting color for seats, but stunning! I bet they're buttery smooth to sit in

Moxie · 11-21-2012, 09:07 AM

Looks like a quality job -

The crown bag will only be available after the pennies are removed. You know the bag is the best piggy bank going

Not a fan of the color but the seats look sweet.

Space Ghost · 11-21-2012, 10:42 AM

Those look nice but, I have to wonder what the rest of the interior color is...

That was what came to mind at first for us too.... Good thing the seats arent purple velour!

We ended up making this customer a matching shift boot as well to match the seats

Of course the Purple isnt for everyone, but just shows whats possible

datbimmerdoe · 11-21-2012, 03:13 PM

purple drank ftw! purple alcantara recaro's ftmfw!!

Powerbeast · 11-22-2012, 11:51 PM
