Porsche 911 GT3 Touring Houndstooth Retrim

Porsche 'sport seats plus' centres retrimmed in black and white Houndstooth... plus a custom dog bed for man's best friend.

The Porsche 911 GT3 Touring is a more understated take on the track-focused GT3, retaining the same 4.0-litre naturally aspirated flat-six with around 502 hp, but ditching the fixed rear wing for a cleaner, more subtle look. It’s still seriously quick reaching 60mph in 3.7 seconds, but feeling more road-oriented and refined. The perfect daily dare I say?

We were tasked with upgrading the vehicles interior with some classic black and white Houndstooth. A common upgrade requested at d:class, and be it a very effective one. This GT3 has the 'Sport Seats Plus' package, and these were originally all-black nappa leather seats. For this project, we were only tasked with retrimming the seat centres.

Our customer saw a previous blog post featuring a GT3 where we retrimmed similar seats in Houndstooth. They loved the result and wanted just that on their vehicle. Some time later, and their car is at d:class for some work!

Houndstooth, a woven pattern originating in Scotland, became a staple of classic European style before entering the automotive world. Porsche adopted it, originally known as “Pepita” in the 1960s and featured in early Porsche 911s. It offered a lightweight, sporty alternative to full leather while adding a distinctive visual contrast. Today, it’s a heritage detail loved by enthusiasts for its connection to Porsche’s golden era. Retrimming interiors in houndstooth is a great way to blend modern builds with that timeless, motorsport-inspired look.
