Now to finish it........integrate a cage with a real snake in the backseat. Just like what pimp my ride did with the fish! Otherwise it looks very unique.

We went to the fabric store to pick up some vinyl so i could redo my headliner in my Z and we saw the croc, but the snake looks good. Dark brown, and black. Well finish the front tomorrow and put a couple more pics up of his max.

The pics that work, look good, I take it your doing the entire dash, and all door panels. It's nice to see something other than carbon fiber or stainless.

Where can Squat get some decent and not to expensive eyebrows for his headlights. I only saw newer max eyebrows online and they were 40 bux!

It's a line from Crocodile Dundee, but he uses Knife instead of Interior.

Spray adhesive, exacto knife, patience and your material of choice is all you need. He had the easy stuff. the door panels are PITA. But definately doable in an hour with a little practice.

To each their own I guess.

The snake skin is actually darker than the pictures show. It was originally going to be croc but the snake just looked more pimp

Those door inserts came pretty good. I would be interested in trying this with a different material but SEWING I'm not so sure about.

Sewing the boot (by hand mind you) took about 3 hours but that was actually the easy part. we will finish the the rest of the ceter dash today and redo the armrest in snake as well.
