This is an impressive build.  The Alcantara method is a great technique.  Thanks for sharing the how to.

Finally got some building done after fighting the flu....a bunch of tedious detail painting. Hopefully this interior will be done by the end of tomorrow....

-Photo 1; I decided to drill-out the molded in switch assembly on the center column, because it wasn't very pronounced after painting. I glued a piece of styrene under the hole to hold the new part that I got from a Mercielago kit.....

-Photo 6; the new part from the Mercielago looks 10x better!

_Photos 8-11; just a quick mock-up....decals, and final assemblies next!

Hey Dann, did you paint on, or draw on those silver rings around the air vents? Or are they photoetch?

Hey, Atin!, those rings are PE gage bezels from Model Car Garage, it was the cleanest way to go.

Hey, everyone!, I have another update here. All the center column switches are on, all I need to do now is finish the seat belt parts....it will be done very soon!!

I decided to replicate the floormats that I saw in a photo of the actual car. I used the thinnest styrene I had, layered it in the middle, then finished them off with strips of coarse sanding film shaped to fit. I also managed to get the seatbelts in, and SB the shoulder bracket covers. They will now be painted along with the mats, and installed tomorrow.
