You did a good job on the install. I like the seats and the visors. I like the constrasting stitching on these and going forward I would continue that as the theme of your interior.

I know you got some free stuff with the seats and used it but I think your interior would look terrific if you changed over the console, shift boot, and e brake boot to black with the yellow contrasting stitching. Also, go back to the orig. black gear button.

If you put more black back into the interior, the difference in yellow won't be an issue.

Try Carskinz for the above, Chris usually runs a special package on same...buy a console cover, get the boots free. Try a console cover like mine below or with some yellow stitching.

I thought I was finished with my interior as well, but ....

Everyone, thanks for the feedback. JerG, the Carskinz stuff looks great and I may end up going that route. For the time being I'm leaving it as, but it will probably be a constant work in progress!

I agree our cars are always a WIP! I thought my interior was done but then my radio was bugging me so I pulled it out and I'm going down the dd road, hope to get it finished by May. Then I'm sure some things under the hood will bug me but I gonna keep my hood closed and my wallet closed at least until Carlisle.

Take care, Jerry

Funny how threads can re-surface after going dormant for awhile. I'm loving it though! Thanks for all the compliments.
