looks amazing.. suede has never looked so sexy. the climate control looks a little funny though.. everything else is suede or dark black but your climate control stands.. just my two cents.. i love your car man. i dont know what else you can do to it to make it more beautiful..

The new parts that were added incase you hadn't seen the previous thread which I closed so it wouldn't get confusing were as follows-

-Wrapped the full dash in Black suede with French double stitching.
-Wrapped the dash glove box in black suede.
-Wrapped the steering wheel column in black suede.
-Wrapped the ingnition cover in black suede.
-Wrapped center console in black suede.
-Wrapped the dash under column in black suede.
-Rewrapped the armrest in black suede with double stitching to match up better.
-Wrapped the Lower B pilars in black suede to match the already black suede upper B pilars, A pillars, C pillars, headiner and rear deck.
-Wrapped all 4 door panels completely with black suede, blue suede inserts at the bottom to matc the seats and added the black leather upper inserts to match he seats.

1st the gutted pic:


All back together:


A couple more.






Adrian, I thought I was your boy, no heads up on the finished thread? Lol! The finished product looks really nice. Great transformation on the interior to go along with a show stopper car all around!

Pretty cool! I couldn't do it personally, cause after awhile, it would remind me of that really old suede jacket in my closet my wife keeps telling me to give away....
