My best advice is to give a call to a shop that you see putting out top quality work and handling custom work on exotics, and tell them what you want done. Definitely don't just stop by just any shop and ask for a quote. Make sure you've seen their work before and that it's the quality you're looking for. I've had enough cars done that I can definitely say that the old addage is correct: you get what you pay for. Also, another good way is to look for exotics at car shows/meets that have had custom interior work done and ask the owner who did it and what their experience was like.

Now another question for the Alcantara experts - how do you clean it (mine is light grey)??
Thanks. Awesome that you have a 111S, it's already hooked up. My preferred method of cleaning the Alcantara is vacuuming it, but another great way is what jasond posted on page 2 -- just wipe a microfiber cloth over it. That is definitely the fastest way and you can keep it pretty clean without having to get out the vacuum every time. If you mean how do you get out stains, I have no experience with that and hopefully will not have to learn lol...I really don't know for sure but to start with, I would go with something that does not have chemicals -- like just soap and water perhaps.
