That looks fantastic - especially with your exterior color combo.

Great work!

Great Job and its a better color combination than just all ebony. All Ebony starts to look dull after a while.

Do you mind going into detail of how you covered the top half of the door pannel in leather.

Did you have to remove it somehow?

Thanks, I really like the combination. I put the leather door panels in unmodified at first and it just didn't look right. I like the way it is now more than a stock 35th LE interior, too much ebony for the lone light gray inserts IMO.

Nice! I really like how you cut out the door panel section, makes it tie with the black/tan scheme of the 35th ann. package, also with your stock carpet.

Hmmm, I guess it can be done. My way looks easier, although probably more expensive.
