This is something that I thought about in the past, but was not sure on where to get material from. It is IMO the most classy thing you could do to your interior without looking overmodded. I always was disappointed at the way the plastic looked in our cars. I am going to order some samples from them for my camaro, as this is going to be something I will do for sure in the future.

I would like to get a sample of the charcoal and ebony please. Tell me where to send the 2 bucks.

The material should arrive a day or two later. It gets sent UPS due to size and weight

Thank you

We've gone through a lot of automotive imitation leather, and this is the best we've found

You can all order samples here: http://store.specializedstainless.co...ry=Free+Sample

Just add one to your cart for $ and check out. I'll send a sample of all the colors we have in stock right now (Ebony 40, Tan 30, Charcoal 39).

I forgot to add to my post above that if you want Charcoal or Tan you need to add $ to the original Leather Kit price and you can only order these colors with a kit because we do not stock this material. The only material we stock is Ebony because we can move enough of it to lower the price.

Thank you

Just when I thought I would be good for awhile with no projects.
I will do my Lexus 1st, driver's seat is showing signs of wear and looks like you might have a color to match.

Good stuff

Hows this stuff hold up in the heat?? I would hate to wrap my dash in it and have the hot texas sun incinerate the stuff or have it peeling up everywhere

The material is listed as UV resistant. So as long as you get it glued down & stretched properly it shouldn't be a issue. Of coarse just out of common sense I'd also use a windshield shade to help protect the dash even further.

I ordered & recieved my kit in Ebony & the material feels very nice. Definetly a good kit to buy if your a true DIY guy & have decent skills when it comes to tackling custom stuff.

is the kit 120 or 180. This thread you said it was 120 but on ur site its still 180. Id pay the 120 but 180 is a little much.

Is the ebony kit near identical to the stock ebony?
