That doesn't look half bad.

I was going to tell you to wait to do your interior until you get some other mods done first to see where it takes you. You may get more mods done and decide what you just did doesn't flow with the rest of the car.

But at least now you've done it, and if you decide to redo it later you'll know what your doing, lol.

Go to topshopheadliners.com e-mail justin. They reproduce, cover, custom make anything from carbonfiber to fiberglass....check out my link on the introduce yourself thread to see some of the work they did on my other car.

They will cover the panels or make a mold or whatever you have in mind. So if you want custom, you'll get custom. I know there is joy in doing it yourself, but if you want profesional show finish. check them out. You might get a discount!!!!

looks good. I am not the biggest fan of the material but it's not done either, love to see it when it's done.

A for effort

F for failed taste.



I have a dark gray interior, but i'm painting it black. I want something that's really classy and sophisticated.

Not bein a hater at all, but that fabric looks like it's off one of those rickety armchairs you can get at a goodwill for $7-$10.

I would go with suede, or a designer fabric, since you're putting this much effort already into redoing it.

Why don't you try something like this:

If you just want experience and something that you can deal with in terms of a design, then you should be ok. If you wanna go all out.. I would change the material.

Just my opinions, all love. :thumbsup:

Gucci and really any other designer stuff is kind of played out IMO. I also think you have to have a car that fits the ideal of designer fashion, i keep seeing the least classy mods on cars not concidered classy, finished off by a brand fabric (or knock off) that is classy. I'm not really feeling the designer stuff lately, especially for people who don't even rock the brand.

Like i said, i have to see the final product, i give props for being different though.
