Default New interior upgrade black/suede

Just wanted to say thanks again to, alshirey (on the other forum) for posting the pics of the upgraded interior. It inspired me to change from grey/black to black/suede...heres what black with silver stiching looks like along w/ black suede in the center counsel.

I'm sure that having the suede really helps to make the interior feel not only cozier but also more upscale. I think it looks awesome!
