Rolls-Royce Wraith Retrim

Harry Pitcher • April 6, 2022

This Rolls-Royce Wraith belongs to a loyal customer of d:class. We have seen many of their cars through our doors, including a Mercedes-Benz G-Wagon we recently retrimmed the seats for seen here.


The vehicle came to us with its original cobalt blue interior from Rolls-Royce, however our customer wanted something more subtle and to their taste. It was then decided we would retrim all of the blue leather to black, including the perforated seat centres.



The first step was to remove the interior parts which were going to be retrimmed. These were both the drivers and front passenger seat, the rear bench and centre piece, the front and rear door cards which included the armrests on both of these.


The next step is to pick apart all of these panels and make patterns of these for the new black nappa and perforated leather.

Once all of the panels had been cut out, it is then a matter of piecing all of these together and adding any additional decretive top stitching. We had the perforated panels matched to the OEM black pieces which were being reused, so we had to ensure they were to the exact OEM specification.

Before & After


Some people may not like retrimming the interior to a more subtle colour, but it is all perspective. Some people may like the very vibrant and lairy colours available from Rolls-Royce, and others may prefer the more tame and premium themed all black interior. No matter what our customers choose we are committed to delivering the best result possible with our extremely talented automotive interior experts. We like the black on black look and it shows up very well on video too!
