It still looks good. I have touched or resprayed the driver side front seat one time, but the only reason I did that, was for the Import Alliance meet this past weekend, wanted it perfect. Overall, would do it again in a New York minute.. I see your TN, where? Need some help?

Good luck with the progress. I think the two tone tan/black looks pretty good, but better all black. Its all in what you like. Post some pictures here!

I know who that belongs to.. SCOTTURNOT.. He did an amazing job on his entire car. He also has countless threads about different $$$$ builds on here.

Just check the classifieds often, they will have some. Most people try and repair and there are countless threads on DIY if not too far gone. Good luck!

Not sure if I missed it somewhere, but what products did you use on your woodgrain?

It took about two weks or so. Just took my time prepping it and sanding every piece to ensure it was done right. The hardest part was removing the wodgrain and reinstalling. I say this because i didnt want to break my center vent. Scale out of ten.. Maybe a three. Pretty straight forward.

yea i started doing mine 2 weeks ago even though i have had the stuff for over a year...lol
everybody that sees it luvs it... i had a big 20in chrome rim sitting on it in 80/90 degree heat for 3 days didnt have a problem.
it looks and feels VERY oem i have a friend with a GS 300 with oem black interior and put the panel up next to his we both went wow.


you can tell its SEM not OEM only because of the over spray where i touched up a piece after i re installed the seats on the pillar.it even smells kinda nice/new.
