Did the leather seat close to initial concept. The below is taken by phone quickly. Will take more photos soon. Family love it and looks good inside and from outside as well.

As an update to the CR-V diesel making to our shores, finally announced, but at what spec remains to be seen, but as said before, should be 2 specs at most otherwise it confuses.

You guys are lucky getting diesel CRVs.
The car is gorgeous! Don't change a thing! If your in Vic, I demand to know who did those seats! What did you think of the 19" Modulo wheels as well? They're the first Honda wheels I'd actually consider buying if going for a stock look. Shudder to think of the price though (maybe UNLS1 can help?)
Thanks. Yes I am in VIC, and they are done by prestige sunroofs which are essentially outsourced from blackmans leather. Although the design scheme is done by myself (as in above posts). I don't think much of the Honda wheels though, were too expensive, heavy and non-concave. I am not really into stock look, but I understand where you come from.
My only kinda regret was not going for something bigger. Should have gone with 22s, if not 20s, was worried that fitting will be off, due to all the mis-informed folks on the net writing about how the CR-V wheelwell is small, how it may flout warranty etc. My 19s with 235/55/19 tyres was a small % off the original 17s in terms of rolling diameter, in compliance with the law, but I now see how that is over-rated and overly cautious on my part. The driving felt like the same as it was in the 17s, as I wanted a firmer ride as well :)
I may eventual move to a bigger set of wheels, anyone for near new 19s? :)
Yeah, Im not one into the stock look wheels either, I just meant that if I was to go back to a stock look , I would consider those 19s! (never liked any of the other oem wheels).
Ah I went to blackman a few years ago for a steering wheel and they do fine work. With the interior, do they basically cover the cloth in a leather skin, or do they remove the existing material underneath first? I've always wondered that.
