Definitely like the seats! The door panels would really get on my nerves but that's just my opinion. It's a nice update for the car, looks like the hard work paid off!

Did you do a writeup on this? Very interested in how you did the door panels, I can't stand the camo cloth anymore.

This came out really good for doing it yourself. Goes well with the theme of the car. Wish the leather was wrapped just a lil tighter though.good job

the panels will straighten out in time.. theyre new guys... give the guy a break.. I did my own and they took about 3 months before I didnt notice any wrinkles anymore.. they were actually good well before that point but because I did them, EVERYTHING stuck out to me....

Very nice Chaman! Do you have a writeup on how you did it or the materials used? Its a nice updated look for sure. Not sure how I feel about the door panels but it is certainly different..

Remove the brushed aluminum stuff and get a better steering-wheel wrap from redlinegoods.com, then call it done. Very nice man!

Anyone talking about the wrinkles know **** about this material. The material at the door panels can not be stretched more since its glued to the insert itself. Once it goes through some heating and shrinking cycles will smooth out.

Well done.

If I had a say in your interior choice, I 'd say keep the trim only on ****, switch plate and radio bezel. Everything else gotta go.

nice seats
