Are you planning on doing the rest of the door cards? Looks rather odd like that.

I'd like to get them done in dark gray & blue alcantara 
In real life probably some fake sutff. They need recovering anyway as the expanding foam leaked.

1) get some carbon firbre cloth
2) get some resin
3) paint item black
4) mix resin
5) put cloth on item
6) slop with resin
7) wait to dry
The other bit I've done is the bit with the mirror adjuster on. It looked crap next to the a-pillar.
Next:
instrument surround
dash centre

u not going to do anything to your exterior? u getting any alloys? i sold mine, wanting a new set, but dont wana pay the 600 quid. already got 15s, which i can cope with. theyre just 5 spoke but theyre curbed to bits of the previous owner. i just dont know what else i want. not 17s, and i take it that 15s are the best handling wise? yeah? i just dont know what... grr!! any ideas?

you need to go to the breakers and get black plastic trims etc,
the difference between the grey plastic and carbon fibre material is too much in my opinion

Its more subtle in real life, the flash brings out the weave really badly.
It looks better than painting all the plastic bits.
