I think thats my favorite part of the interior.


I gotta stop reading "parts for sale" forum. My wife is going to kick my A$$. Exterior comin soon! Nothing big though. Just going to tint the parking, brake and front corner lights. Putting new rotors, brake pads and caliper covers on also. Leaving the rest alone............. for now.

Well the leather seats seem to be hit and miss. I got them off ebay.
This is one of their auctions. If you take your time and watch them you can get a set pretty cheap. I saw a set go for 180 last week. Thats the good part. The bad part is it took forever to get them. About a month. Some of their feed back is not to great either. MY seats turned out great though. They fit perfectly.

Looks awesome nice work on the interior for a great price I too have a white vert too and can't wait to see what you do on the exterior Problem with the modding bug you can't stop looking for ideas
