just do 6 month maintenance on your Alcantara, damp microfiber cloth with detergent or baby shampoo will do. Rub off all the accumulated dirt and oil, then grab a used toothbrush to do light scrubbing and brush up the micro fibers on the alcantara. Will be just like new and should remain that way for years.

I do it monthly on the ITS, takes like 30 minutes

if you want to take it a step further get it treated with fabric protection, saw this on a group post. Don’t know what he used but I got Gtechniq Smart Fabric 2L to also repel liquids
This ^. Alcantara is an awesome material and is actually very easy to maintain, but it does HAVE to be maintained. It can also be restored, to a point- but it can also be ruined if you get too aggressive with your cleaning "technique". Ask me how I know.

It's also really appealing that the alcantara wheel isn't prohibitively expensive. The Porsche wheel is $1500+, so $3-400 even if you do ruin it doesn't sound all that bad.

One other thing to consider for this console piece is it's not a really high-traffic area. I don't really touch this piece at all come to think of it. I would imagine that periodic gentle cleanings, especially after a spray or two of Gtechiq and this wouldn't be a problem at all.

edit- also just noticed this piece is already sold out. I had it pulled up yesterday and didn't pull the trigger. Guess now I get to wait; you guys talk about something else for a few weeks now pls, give people time to forget it exists.

MSRP; no ADM or required accessories. Paid a refundable $500 deposit to get on the waitlist which I just went ahead and applied to the down payment.

Thanks for the reply and congrats
you’ll find that many ITS can be had for MSRP but there are long waitlists. MSRP in California is much more difficult from what I’ve heard

Roof gloss black PPF, antenna gloss black wrap to match.

Rest of car ceramic, with wheels and calipers.

I know it is not an R but wanted emblems in red.

Flat black wrap to cover piano black around shifter.

Doesn’t have to be an R to be red. Integra was the first “R” anyway. “S” is just Acura’s marketing brand version now for North America.

besides, they already gave ya OEM red calipers, red type S badges and red seats. You’re fine, looks good
