Their price ranges from 1000 to crazy numbers, depends on what leather and how crazy you want to go...for Me i wanted all the leather changed and swapped with top of the line leather and suede, as my old one started to hardened due to neglect from the previous owner the only thing left is probably 5-10 percent everything else was replaced...for the complete custom change it was around 8700+ including labor and painting the interior trims by Ranz Motorsports to match...


BEst part about Topstitch is they will work on your budget and vision

Sabine looks awesome Chris! Congrats!!

A few questions for you:
1) What is included in the Radenergie Power Kit?
2) What suspension are you running?
3) What color did you paint the wheel centers? Look kinda bronzish?
4) What hood is that and can we see a top pic of it when it's closed?
