not to shaby. im not to sure on the door switch panel, maybe paint them a nice gloss black to break up all the leather look. i imagine that this would also help with all the rattles that are common with the f-bodies. nice stuff. keep the pics coming, i cant wait to see them installed.

How much are you looking to get for this, and as asked before are you planning on doing the center console?

Thank you
I'm sorry but there is no way I can give a final price until I finish the kit entirely. The final price will be determined when it is for sale in my store.

This was just brought to my attention, but for that price, Id definitely be in on it. I havent read all of this thread, but I wonder how hard it will be do do. To get it all nice and smooth with no wrinkles, factory looking.

any idea of when you'll have pics of it all installed, I eagerly check every day, sometimes twice or three times, only to get bummed out when there are none. Looks awesome so far cant wait to see it finished.

I'm definitely in, just worried about installing it. That, and how it will hold up as far as the stuff peeling or bubbling as years go by. Because it seems like once you start, if you screw up, your screwed with a ruined interior...

For sure it is a one way job; there is no return once you started.

Looks ok. Once you get a little more practice Im sure you will have it down PHAT! But thats how I learned. Trial and error. Hell I think the door panels were the worst part when I installed all my leather. Never thought about doing the whole car.
