Don't let one opinion freak you out. Each of us has specific taste and on the fourm your going to hear from a good cross section. Look at all the great comments and be willing to accept that your creation is never going to be accepted by every member.
Nice job and look. ENJOY!
My interior is in the process of being completed and I know some will think it is to plain. Just the way it is. I'm doing what I like and I am the one paying the bill so I will also be the one that enjoys it.

Good luck with your interior, and do it to suite your taste.
let's see some pictures when it's done.

It's kind of hard to get a picture that shows how dark the leather is, it looks more gray then what it is. I'll try again when i can get it outside. For now this is the last of the inside ones.

That looks amazing finished.
I have to ask though about covering the steering wheel and the passenger air bag with leather, how does that affect the functionality of those two?
I cannot imagine that they would deploy properly in a crash.

There is a testimonial on the Apsis website( page 13) . It's from a guy that had a accident with a covered air bag installed in his car, and shows pictures of the air bag after it deployed Thanks ,Walt

Incredible interior. I think I should find my wife another job so I can afford doing it to mine. Is there a secret way to convince her how wonderful she'll feel riding around town with that interior....as a passenger.
