M2C - leather dash?

Purchased a 2020 M2C. Great driving vehicle and love it though I have only driven in 3k miles. Realize purely cosmetic but thinking of "upgrading" the dash which to me means an all leather dash while retaining the CF pieces.

Questions:
1. Have you done this and if so, can you share pictures and costs?
2. Durability of an aftermarket all leather dash - concerned about shrinkage and wrinkling (sounds like the Seinfeld episode with George and the ocean)?
3. Other concerns which I have not considered yet?

Thanks in advance

Check out Amx_Performance on Instagram. They did a full Alcantera interior for Phil_M2. I'm sure they can give you a quote. I plan on having them do custom seats for my 21'.

That's actually really nicely done. Sometimes conversion just look like a fur fest in the cabin! I think the blue stitching and close fit have helped a lot.

Those a great prices. The only downside is shipping international is at an all time high right now

You could also start hunting Instagram for interior auto leatherwork shops in your area

I would also consider ECD Performance as well out of Germany. They apparently do fantastic work or so I've heard.
