I havent heard much about them in terms of colors, most people who used it used black, and got great results. Im thinking of dying my carpet and my spare seats i have in the garage with it to see how it turns out. Apparnetly the key is hot water and salt.

that suede is the s**t! im telling you...

did you trace the template with a sharpie or something? how'd you get the suede on the arm rest so flush? i couldnt find the right way to get the other fabric on without leaving some pinch.

Havent posted pics sorry Ill get around to it...to be honest I had to do it 3 times before i got it right, I'd sand down the plastic a little to get the glue residue off. Then cut an outline of the old carpet, it doesnt have to be exact but be sure to cut some slits for the power window controls. Spray some glue and work from the middle out...

this is gonna have to wait til my hands heal up. got some cuts and they're hella too cold to do things right. got my speakers on anyways.

i did my panels in my room so i could work in the warm lol...

no i just cut a big rectangle that fit the stock fabric in it...then trimmed it after i put it on..you just have to take your time bro lol...you have really push down on the fabric so its flat..
