Another install point on the bezel. Get good adhesive. I was using a DAP contact cement for most of the install. It was great, almost instantly tacky. I ran out about 2/3 the way through and had to make a Walmart run. I got Elmer's rubber cement. Not nearly as good, you have to give it 5-10 minutes or so before it was tacky enough to hold.

Your interior is looking good and those products seem to fit well.

Haha, look in the passenger foot well. While I was poking around the interior yesterday, my glove box literally just fell out. Looks like the previous owner tried to yank the dang thing out by force and broke the hinges and mounting points, and it finally gave up yesterday...so right now I have no glove box. I guess that explains the clacking noise I've been hearing from that area while going over bumps. I scored a gray replacement for $75 on ebay, which I'm going to leather wrap to match the rest of my stuff. Comes out cheaper than the $200 people wanted for black glove boxes.

I like the very subtle, but custom, look the blue stitching gives!
Thanks for the pics.

Has anyone tried their sun visor leather covers?
I asked them if they had a pic of the side where the velcro closes the visor cover.......they said they didn't have any pics

Has anyone used them for your interior? They've got tons of C5 items on ebay. You could basically deck out your whole interior with leather. Traditionally, I've always used Redline Goods for leather pieces, but JF's selection is much wider. Granted, they don't seem to be nearly as customizeable, but I'm thinking I only want black leather with colored stitching for this car anyway. Their shift boots are dirt cheap, I'm thinking of ordering one as a quality test.

I see they have purple stitching AND purple leather. Might have to try their shifter and e-brake boots with both. I sent them a message to see if they can do the double stitching so we’ll see if they can. My other things have the double but it won’t be a deal breaker I don’t think.
Update: Got an email from them and they didn't understand what I meant by double stitched on the boots so I sent them a picture. Turns out my autocorrect got in the way and I asked for double stitching on the "bolts" and not the "boots"...lol. I wouldn't understand double stitching on the bolts either. We'll see what they say.
