Suede Time
#41
yeah just enjoy your ride that is my suggestion. You have a great lookin car especially cuz it is black. remember don't too much can ruin a great thing. Well it is to bad that I don't live in RI or I would be at your door to get my headliner done. I have a black interior with red piping and I need to get rid of that light grey headliner. How hard was it to do the visor monitors? can you pm me details of that and the headliner like cost how much material you bought ect.

Gec i dont have too many suggestions for you left because you did everything i wanted to do. But maybe, well i always wanted to see some fire blow out those 4 pipes when the car starts up. Hehe i know its not legal but damn i can dream. I think im on the same boat as you when it comes to my car, i just like to style it. But i just dont have the craftsmanship to do what you do, nor do i have the money to pay for it. But when i do ill be knocking on your door. Good luck, and maybe next time try black wheels with chrome lip, now that would be SLICKKKKKKKKK!

Hey Gec I went to the shop that did my seats for me and they quoted me 500 buck to do the headliner and pillers and dye the plastic parts that could not be covered in ultra suede. Does that sound like a far price or is that a bit high.

The material I cant think of the name right now but I looked at the stuff from katzkin and this stuff is nicer has a longer nap. What stuff did you use and where did you get it? He is also gonna paint all the plastic and make the housings for monitor in the visors. He did want a lot to do the headrest so I thinking about getting the ones from Pioneer and buying the post to take them out of the car when the kids are not watching them.

Hey Gec how much was the real suede you used. My guy insist that he can't get real suede only the microfiber. If I can get it from you or your guy and have my guy do it for me that would be sweet. That total I gave before was for the labor and material. I am not sure how much of it was for the material and for the labor. But if you could clue me in that way I am sure that I am getting the best deal.

Seriously though, that looks like it took a lot of work, time and money. Good job.
You need some clear daytime pictures though... and to call your insurance people to let them know you have all that stuff in there, just in case.

I'm waiting to get the sunglass holder and a steering wheel from the next wreck that comes in....didn't think bout the bottom pocket...but did think about putting the LED screen down there and another monitor up top....I'm kinda tired of my car right now, and I think I've used my bro-inlaws spare time up this year so its time for a vaca from modding till after the holidays...lol

Seriously though... if I put that much **** in my car, it wouldn't even sit on the driveway. It'd be in the garage every night...
I was spooked because I had to leave mine at LGA over the weekend... I kept thinking that I was gonna get back and it was gonna be stripped... and mine basically looks stock compared to his...

alarms are worthless now days everyone has become desenstize to them. Besides if a good thief wants your stuff it is gone. All you can do is hope you have good insurance. Plus be very causious as to where you park your car. But that is a great ride and it is inspiring as well.

I think you're right that you have to be careful where you park and all, but if you can't even leave your car in the mall parking lot because of fear that somebody's gonna rip you off then that's not the way to live...
