Default Save $200

.....when converting your car from cloth to leather. Buying matching leather door panels is pretty expensive, I see them go for $150-$250. I made my own tonight..

My camaro came with cloth.

As in, really ugly funky fiesta cloth. This is the door panel, and the seats match.



I finally bought some black leather trans am seats...holy hell they are so comfy, but that's besides the point. I still had super ugly door panels, and didn't want to spend $200 for leather ones.

So I made new ones tonight. I know, get a life, it's saturday!

Yeah, a solid gray would have made too much sense I guess. Some guy must have let his 12 year old daughter design the pattern. That looks much better!
