Photo: Custom Trimmed Audi RS 6

January 23, 2013 By Tech Help

Speaking of unique pleats, check out the stitch work in this Audi RS 6. It was done by none other than Vilner – a Bulgarian trim shop that’s anything but subtle.

We have no idea what to call these pleats, but we’d love to hear your suggestions in the comments section below.

For more photos of this one-off interior, check out Vilner‘s RS 6 Facebook album.

    Perspective stitch? Or vanishing point stitch?

      Good suggestions Steve! I like “vanishing point” stitch or pleat. It gets the point across rather clearly.

    Overdose. Because that’s probably what happened to the one eho sewed them!

    What I would like to know is where did they get those color seat belts. Since seat belts always seem to be a hardest thing to do anything to.

          It looks a little lighter than the example above, but here is our listing for the lime green 270 thread: http://www.duboisfabrics.com/product_p/q270-lime-green.htm

    That is beautiful. Great job to whoever dreamed and did the work! This is why I love this industry!

    Personally for me i’m not keen on the design, the RS Audi is there HOT model and some how it makes it a bit old man?

    Nice work BUT my biggest gripe is the pattern of the knee roll should line up as it goes onto the seat centre…that would bother me!

    • Naseem Muaddi says

      January 25, 2013 at 5:26 am

      You’re right, it is a little bit off and that would bother me too.

      But I’m gonna let it slide because I know trying to line up that pattern in that spot must have been a serious pain in the ass.

      It may be due to the curved roll and the viewing angle. Lines change with perspective. They may look perfect…if you are sitting on the steering wheel!!!

    Make sure to click on the link and check out the rest of the interior, it’s just as beautiful. Adding that hint of green on the door panels was genius.

    I’ve already watched on you tube Vilner’s jobs. Those Bulgarian guys are excelent artists.I agree with ‘perspective drawing’ handled and mixed in a beautiful way that turns out in a nice view without changing the original structure of the seats.
