Dave Kindig Visit - Kindigitdesign

Harry Pitcher • September 10, 2025

We had the pleasure of Dave and Drew Kindig visit the team at d:class HQ. A little back story for how this meeting happened which starts back in Las Vegas, Nevada at SEMA 2024. After a long day of walking around SEMA, shaking hands, and mingling with some of the best builders SEMA had to offer, David and the team got ready for a well deserved dinner and drinks in Las Vegas, where the guys ran into none other than Dave Kindig from Bitchin' Rides.  Dave liked our energy and British humour, so stuck around for a few drinks and photo ops with the team.

Fast forward some months to Barrett Jackson in Arizona, Where David and Martyn chaperoned the McLaren SLR HDK for the week. Same situation as SEMA, the guys went out for food and drinks and ran into Dave once again. This time a plan was made for Dave to come visit d:class and be shown around McLaren when he was next in the UK. Another jump forward in time and Dave had also planned to attend multiple events and companies in one hit, almost like a UK tour. 

The boys were reunited at McLaren's MTC where they were shown round, including the production line, heritage departments and spec rooms. Then onto MSO (McLaren Special Operations), and finally d:class for some pizza, a chat, a tour, and meeting the team for some signatures and photos. We really appreciate Dave and Drews time and efforts, taking the time to speak with us all, and as mentioned pose for some photos. It is not everyday you meet car royalty.

Ferrari 488 GTB Wheel Retrim

By Harry Pitcher • April 28, 2026
This Ferrari 488 GTB came to d:class for a steering wheel retrim, despite only showing light signs of wear. Having recently changed hands, the new owner wanted the car to feel completely their own. Starting with the one part you touch every time you drive. A fresh wheel makes all the difference, complemented by the installation of new steering wheel buttons to complete that factory-fresh finish.

Porsche 911 Turbo S Partial Retrim

By Harry Pitcher • April 28, 2026
This Porsche 911 Turbo S came to d:class for a partial seat and door card retrim. The customer wanted a band of grey Alcantara flowing around the seat base and back, matched as closely as possible to the car’s exterior colour. We were also tasked with recreating the debossed ‘Turbo S’ as an embroidered logo. Finally, the door card centres were retrimmed in matching grey Alcantara, complete with OEM-style stitch lines. Not a huge job, but a well-executed and highly effective OEM-like upgrade.

Porsche 918 Spyder Steering Wheel Retrim

By Harry Pitcher • April 23, 2026
This is the second Porsche 918 Spyder to come through d:class for a steering wheel retrim. The reason for this one, however, is a little unusual. The previous owner chose to cut corners by hand-painting the racing band orange... hardly the right approach on any car, let alone one of this calibre. From factory, this 918 Spyder featured a distinctive neon green racing band, designed to tie in with other signature details across the car, such as the rev needle, rear badging, and brake calipers. Naturally, the new owner wanted this put right, and the car was promptly brought to us for a wheel retrim.
