The seat coverings were manufactured in Lead Grey (ADI-1111) aviation leather and edged with a contrasting white stitching. The seat backrest centre inserts were perforated in the SP1 design and the Piper logo was embossed into the upper section of backrests. The sidewall trims were completed in a synthetic leather that was matched to the seat coverings. The sidewall features a ‘double’ stitching line running horizontally down the panels. 

The floor coverings were manufactured in a carpet that is matched to the seating and sidewall trims. The carpets extend up the sidewall and to the bottom of the bench seat. In the footwells, the carpet is protected by an alloy mat in this area of high wear. The rear luggage bay of the aircraft also has carpet flooring and luggage tie down straps which consist of two 25mm webbing adjustable straps crossing each other.

The headlining was manufactured from a perforated vinyl in a lighter grey, matched to the colour of the plastics. The plastics were repaired and reconditioned as were the moulded concave trims that house the armrests. The armrests are wrapped in the Lead Grey (ADI-1111) leather while the draught excluders are matched to the plastics. Other parts include the glare shield which is a matt-black vinyl.
