Yeah I got it...and it's available to anybody else that wants one through Uncald4, Acurazine Vendor.
A new one is being fabricated for me with a 1x1 twill.
Here's a picture of what the prototype looked like.
This was just the top cover because when I took this pic the lower cover hadn't been made yet.

each panel is either suede/leather or leather, red-stitching through the car.

^ Actually it's all done.
I had my car showing at Nisei this past Saturday but the judges had a hard time deciding which category to put my car into - either way, my car didn't win anything, but my car got a lot of looks especially with the interior.
Lots of people had questions for me, I met a few people from this forum, all in all a pretty good time.

Couple pics from Speedhunters Nisei Blog:
Here's another example of a flush USDM machine, an Acura CL wearing staggered TE37s.
It's defintley a unique wheel setup on a car like this. Just right, or too far? You be the judge.

19 x 10 Wheels On Acura CL Type S 6m FWD
I personally own a CL type S 6 MT and thought about getting such fat wheels. Visually, the look really good, functionally, wheels that wide is going to cause your car to under steer.
I've had the personal experience of driving over 120mph in the rain (yokohama Avid V4) with a wide tire set up. If your rear wheels grip more than the front, which will be the case with such a fat wheel set up, you'll lose grip on the front wheels which in turn will cause your car to understeer.
