Lotus Eleven Partial Retrim

Harry Pitcher • February 14, 2024

A regular customer to d:class automotive brought down their Lotus Eleven for a partial retrim. The car was originally dropped off to our neighbours at Multi-Tech Coachworks for a respray, but saw that we do automotive trimming and decided to get the interior retrimmed too.


As you can see from the before images below, this Lotus has undertaken quite the transformation.

Starting off with the drivers seat and back panel, these were retrimmed in deep blue nappa leather from the Autolux range by Uk Hide Co. Once this was done, the customer chose to get the dashboard panel retrimmed in black grained leather. Next was the steering wheel, this was originally a wooden wheel but now has been modified to accompany the new leather trim. Red nappa leather with hand sewn blue stitching to match that found on the drivers seat and back panel.

As mentioned in the Seat section, all of our lasering was accomplished by Chris and Marc from Formation Industries. The tartan pattern was a perfect replica, even the shape and texture of a real piece of tartan material was achieved... somehow, but that's Formation Industries. We have since had samples come through with this pattern in a variety of colours which we now offer as part of any retrims. We are not limited to replicating tartan, but have previously recreated houndstooth which was lasered into distressed leather for another customer. Got a pattern in mind? get in touch and we can make it happen. Not only did Formation Industries laser our seats, but this pattern was repeated onto the headlining and door cards. The dashboard saw multiple SRS Airbag emblems lasered into the dash top and lower dash panels. The floor mats also feature "SLR HDK" logos repeatedly creating a pattern.
