Mercedes-Benz SL350 Interior Retrim

Harry Pitcher • November 15, 2023

This Mercedes-Benz SL350 recently came to d:class for a partial interior retrim. The vehicle has undergone a soft restoration, and our interior work was the final part of this restoration. Before we had the privilege of working on the vehicle, it had just received an exterior respray and a mechanical overhaul.


Our customer requested for both seats to be retrimmed, the door card centres and grab handles, centre console panels, rear interior panels, and lastly a fresh set of seat belts.

For this project, we retrimmed the seats, door cards, and rear panels in Alpaca grey grained leather, supplied by our good friends at @UK Hide. This leather is a period correct Mercedes-Benz leather. A matching vinyl was also selected as some parts of the OEM interior which are vinyl. The Centre console and other areas had a darker shade of grey leather, this is Middle Orion grained grey leather and was also supplied by UK Hide.

Lastly, we were asked to change the seat belts as the originals had begun to discolour. Fresh light grey belts across the newly retrimmed leather seats really add a little something extra to this partial retrim. We have sort out and achieved an OEM like for like retrim on this beautiful SL350 example.

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.

Ferrari 328 GTS Interior Repairs

By Harry Pitcher • April 22, 2026
This beautiful Ferrari 328 GTS came to d:class with a common repair job. Mickey mouse had moved himself in whilst the vehicle was being long-term stored, and fancied a diet of 80s Italian leather. This does happen with vehicles being stored over long periods of time, especially those who store their cars with vehicle storage companies near any farmland. So, the job was to retrim both seat bases, retrim the handbrake lever, both of the seat side trims, and some of the rear bulkhead trim. Who knew mice could have such exotic dietary requirements. Mickey wasn't very tidy and left a lot of mess, so we gave the car a clean inside and out, ready for the customer. We don't typically post this kind of work, but we are suckers here for a 1980s Ferrari, so we had to shoot it....and make a Fast and Furious parody clip. Enjoy!
