Porsche LWB 918 Seat
A fully customized seat conversion and interior integration project for a Porsche 992 GT3 Touring — transforming standard sport seating into lightweight carbon bucket seats, tailored precisely to match the existing interior specification and delivered to Hidden Hills, Los Angeles 🇺🇸.
The project began with sourcing the correct carbon bucket seat shells, followed by a complete bespoke interior development process to ensure seamless integration with the vehicle’s original cabin design language. The goal was not only performance upgrade, but visual harmony — making the new bucket seats feel factory-intended within the Touring interior.
Interior Specification
The seating surfaces were retrimmed in Mojave beige leather, carefully selected and matched to blend perfectly with the existing interior tone. This soft, warm leather establishes the foundation of the design, maintaining the refined GT character of the 992 Touring while elevating it with bespoke craftsmanship.
To introduce a signature identity, all stitching was executed in Mamba green — a precise contrast detail that adds depth, individuality, and a subtle motorsport reference without overwhelming the cabin’s elegance.
The center inserts were developed using a carefully selected tartan fabric, chosen specifically for its color compatibility with both Mojave beige and Mamba green. This material introduces heritage texture and visual complexity, bridging classic Porsche inspiration with modern GT3 performance architecture.

Design Perspective
Refined. Technical. Individual.
This project balances the aggressive intent of GT3 carbon bucket seats with the calm sophistication of a Touring-spec interior.
The Mojave beige leather softens the structural intensity of the carbon shells, while the Mamba green stitching introduces a precise visual signature that connects subtly to Porsche motorsport heritage.
The tartan inserts add another layer — not just aesthetic, but emotional — referencing classic Porsche interior culture while remaining fully contemporary in execution.
Material Philosophy
This interior is defined by controlled contrast:
- Mojave beige leather for warmth and cohesion
- Carbon bucket structure for performance identity
- Mamba green stitching for precision detailing
- Tartan inserts for heritage depth and texture
Every element was selected to integrate rather than compete, ensuring the seats feel like a natural evolution of the original cabin rather than an aftermarket addition.
