Seat recovering/ interior ideas

So I just bought some '84 sport seats for the 78 Strosek Widebody and am using the cold weather to start working on the interior for spring, at which point I'll start working on the mechanicals. Can anyone recommend a good seat cover seller? I've heard Cypok and 928 so far. I'd frankly like something a little bit custom or out of the box (blue piping, alcantara insert, diamond stitched suede, etc). Open to good ideas. I'm not a Porsche traditionalist at all (you can tell by the pics.) so I'm willing to go reasonably tacky without getting too rice. I replaced the steering wheel with a Momo Pilota 2 in black/blue and a matching shift knob.I also bought some nicer door panels (thought about RS but too spartan for my taste) and would like to have the diagonal pieces on top cross-stitched blue (I got the idea from a Ferrari i saw with stitched Daytona seats). I also plan to put a center console in. I'm running 18" Antera 101's now and am considering painting them black with the blue strip a la the Techart GT Streets, although I have a pair of Speedline Alesio's that I'm refinishing as well. Here are some exterior pics. Thanks for your help and would love to see pics of your custom interiors

I always liked the look of that body kit. I always thought if my panels needed to be replaced i'd consider that kit. Then i realized that for the most part it is one unit. If you get hit or hit something, what would otherwise cause replacement for one fender would cause replacement for all fenders since it's one unit.

It's fiberglass, so you can chop them up and just replace the piece you need. I actually have a set of rear fender flares, but if something were to happen to seriously damage the front, I'd probably go back to the standard bug eyes.
