Time for upholstery!!!
So while i'm waiting for the semester to end to begin bodywork, i might as well tackle my interior.
Exterior: satin black
Interior: Plastics are medium or dark gray(one of the 2)
I'm getting black carpet and black 6LE seats for my bday
I'm thinking that the door panels need some love too, the lower carpeted part is going to be black, and possibly red and black houndstooth for the upper upholstered part of the door.
I'm sure that most people won't like this look, but i'm sort of going for that older hot rod look.
Too much?
Thoughts or suggestions?

Damn, that sounds really good.
I have some upholstery experience, but i have never worked with leather and we don't really have a good upholstery shop around here, so i guess i'm stuck to fabrics with this one. lol
I'd love to see some pics of the finished product when you get done though

while i've got this thread up, has anyone tried to use staples also, i noticed the factory has staples and glue, and i have heard of the nightmares of using just glue?
