Interlagos Plaid source?

**motobri** · 01-29-2010 12:45 PM

Anyone know where I can get some Interlagos plaid fabric like in the new GTI?
Enough for F&R seats in a MK1

**duffmanh06** · 02-02-2010 07:06 PM

in the euro tuner about the fsi in the corrado the guy who did that swap bought the only fabric in the usa. it was like 1000 bucks for some small amount. and apparently it was the only stuff in the usa. some company in cali bought it from VWoD (Volkswagen of Deutschland) maybe theres some now. idk. your best bet is gonna be to contact some fabric distributors.

Was available in Mexico. The image in the #4 link is opaque indicating it is presently not available.

They do speak English, click on the English link top right.
Send them an e-mail and make sure you mention your location and shipping info.

Found under the link "Mas vendidos" then click on # 4.

About $124.

If anyone has a sample of this I can have, I will get it reproduced this summer.

**rollercoasterracer** · 04-16-2010 11:36 PM

Somebody get this man some samples!

**Dub A** · 04-17-2010 04:33 AM

I second that request.... I will go to a junk yard and cut it out of a seat if I have to

**KDI_CUSTOMS** · 04-17-2010 09:49 AM

Yes, if anyone has a big enough swatch to show the repeat of the pattern, I will try to get this remanufactured quickly. I have several customers looking to purchase!!

**Dub A** · 04-18-2010 09:05 PM

Like how big are we talking? I am also assuming you need the fabric in hand picture would not do.

**KDI_CUSTOMS** · 04-19-2010 08:56 PM

Yes, Id need the actual swatch of material so that a thread count can be done and they can check the type of material it is made of. It can be reproduced in all kinds of different material such as a nylon blend or cotton. It can be done in different weight too.

**rollercoasterracer** · 04-20-2010 08:11 PM

Someone with a Mk5, go without a door card for a bit! Do EEET.

NVM... don't think they are on the doorcards... IDK, don't drive new cars

**KDI_CUSTOMS** · 04-20-2010 10:29 PM

Im trying to get a seat cover from NGP. They had a set of front seats sitting in a project car from last year and I think it is still up there. As soon as I can get away from the shop I will be going up to talk to Dave, Arno, Chaz or one of the other guys to see what I can do.

**Dub A** · 04-25-2010 08:14 PM

AWESOME!!! PLEASE keep me in the loop on that

**Euro 323i** · 04-26-2010 04:35 PM

I can get you both of these at $160 per meter plus shipping.

I exclusively do bimmers interiors/kits but VWs are about the same size. You would need 3 meters for all the center sections and headrests.

Euro How much of a pain is it to replace a headliner? How many meters would that be? Also if I wanted to do some accents in the trunk like the the side walls and top tray?

I usually use 2.5 to 3 yards for older bimmers but they are sewn with sleeves for the rods. Depends on which model vw, but some use a hardpanel you remove. Take it out lay down your glue and just glue it the panel. I have only done vw seating, I do not have direct experience with headliners.

**shortwave360** · 05-20-2010 03:14 AM

any news on this? I am about to go to the dealership and buy the replacement covers for the back rest on the front seat. If a sample was to be needed to make a copy I would gladly send over a swath to make the duplicate possible.

**vwtracks** · 05-20-2010 11:49 AM

I am also very interested in finding out more about this too. If this is going to happen, I want in!!!

**Mr. EüroMatt** · 05-30-2010 07:32 PM

THAT would be fantastic for redoing the door cards on my Mk4 Golf, as well as the trunk cover. Would LOVE to have a few yards of this in the next couple months!!

I'm looking close at that picture, but I can't tell... is that an orange line in there? Kevin, do you have any pictures of a bigger swatch or otherwise installed version of the fabric on the left?

It is red, the lighting makes it look orange. Also I am working out a better price with my vendor on volume, hope to get down to $130 per meter. Sorry no other pics as I have not used it on any interiors.

This is a pic with no flash

**George** · 08-20-2010 02:02 AM

Update?

**Euro 323i** · 08-20-2010 07:00 AM

I have the cloth down to $135 per M + shipping.....
Kevin

**Gyntry** · 08-20-2010 03:51 PM

I'd really like to see pictures of this installed... holding out for pics!

**KDI_CUSTOMS** · 09-09-2010 03:54 PM

Im probably jumping the gun here but, Im going to talk to a reproduction company tomorrow on some plaid. Would anyone be interested in this stuff? I will start a thread on this once I have more info.

Mark 1 original

**Euro 323i** · 09-10-2010 07:55 AM

Tim,
Very cool cloth, any idea of costs yet or are you just in the inquiry stage?
Kevin

Kevin, we are in the inquiry stage right now. Once I get some prices on reproduction I will give everyone info. I have another material I am waiting on also. It is Mark 1 black with red and white stripe. Looks similar to interlagos.

**KDI_CUSTOMS** · 09-10-2010 04:38 PM

Received the second plaid sample today. Original seat cover.

**Gyntry** · 09-10-2010 06:32 PM

That's gettin pretty close! Without fade/some color adjustments its getting very close!

Just a quick reference picture:

**shortwave360** · 09-11-2010 06:19 AM

I'm very interested still. I want mkv interlagos though primarily. I would send you the cover from my rear seat for a match. I am in the market for about 6 yards.

**vwtracks** · 09-16-2010 06:50 PM

How about this stuff guys. I think it's pretty damn close and not too expensive.
