Preview of coming attractions. Door panels, grips, and console cover are being done.



LadyT wasn't excited about the project, UNTIL she seen the pic's! NOW she want's the REST of the car done! Come on economy, pick back up so Joe can finish this project!

Lucy never looked better.  Can't wait to see the finished product installed.  Another example of JPM craftsmanship and quality.

2008 Brazen GXP, nicknamed FALCON because they fly at high speeds, change direction quickly, and dive at speeds that exceed 200 mph making them the fastest-moving creatures on earth.

Wow, the nicest ones he has done yet.  Each time Joe does something, he out does himself on the next one!

I agree! I knew exactly what I wanted, and Joe did it RIGHT! Can't wait to get the matching console cover back! Joe said these were the hardest ones he's done yet, but I agree, he just get's better each time. You should see what he has in mind for some of the REST of the car.

You people in FLA, say HI to Joe for me this weekend. You're keeping him from working on my console cover! ;)

Finally got Lucy all cleaned up and took a few pics with everything in. Here she is with her new black and Ferrari red leather:





And 2 of the other 3 vehicles we have. Her winter DD, a '99 Z71 Sportside, and my DD, a '04 Monte Carlo Intimidator SS:

Lucy'sDaddy, breathtaking, gorgeous, stunning, sensuous, captivating, invigerating, powerful, masterful, incredible, and finally out of this world!

Well, in all my years as a Moderator first on the Solstice GXP Owners and now here on this great forum, have I ever seen an interior with the continuity and over-all quality of presentation that yours has, and with the great quality workmanship that Joe at JPM always exhibits in his works of art.  Yes, best I have ever seen!  Joe, you have come up with one for the ages. 

Lucy'sDaddy, I am sure you are beside yourself with pride and inner warmth when you drive your pride and joy around.  I wish you many years behind the wheel of Lucy.  You will be the recipient of many smiles and thumbs up.  :thumbs:   :woohoo:  :yay:  :brnout:   :drool: :cheers:
 :drag:

I believe the adendum about says it all.  I have never before put so many compliments behind an evaluation.

Thanks for the major compliment, but remember, this is not MY car, it's LadyT's (I just make the payments). The door panels I designed, and Joe made it work. The armrest is a combo design with Joe's concept of black and red, but I wanted the flames, and after several concepts, we came up with this. The flames are mine, and the door embroidery is a match of the engraving I did on the wind restrictor I made.

Lady T was very intent on only soft leather, and the black and Ferrari red combo worked great. If I can get back to work, maybe next year we can finish the job. Good start, huh?

Beautiful job as always.
One question though, why did you keep the door grab handles in Black, but did the one in the center RED?.

Joe couldn't get it to look right, he felt. The way the lines were where things came together. So I trusted him on that.
