Porsche 912 Full Retrim for TGE TV

Harry Pitcher • December 17, 2021

For those who follow us on Instagram and YouTube, the last time you would have seen Tom's Porsche 912 would have been when we received it and went through the plan of the retrim. Now a few months have passed and Tom has been back to visit us, we can show you all the progression made on the 912.


The first step was to fully strip the cars interior in preparation for the new bespoke carpets. The vehicle was in pretty good condition considering how old the car is which makes our job easier. As said, brand new square box weave carpet throughout with green leather binding to match the Porsche Irish green.


Custom laser etched distressed leather from Crest leather with the Porsche houndstooth patterning. No one else has created such a unique and bespoke interior for a Porsche 912, so be sure to keep an eye out for the finished article.


As Tom has mentioned he is not after a "perfect" restoration per say, it just needs a professional and cared for restoration to return the classic to standard better than factory. We are very excited to be involved and can't wait to show you the process of the remaining dashboard and seats in a future part to this restoration.


Enjoy these images and episode 2!

SLR HDK | Lasering

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.
