I haven't recovered the rear deck yet, but i plan on using black vinyl that matches my black leather. Going to add seams that match the rear seat. I think it looks good. I think that i am going to trim the corners of the sheild. You can see them in the photo...

Vinyl? Interesting choice, post up when it is recovered. I got rid of that brake light first thing and had the deck recovered in fabric that matched the factory stuff. Looks perfect and has held up excellently.

Yes, The vinyl ( think motorcycle seat) will match the leather I have, just as the cloth you used matches the factory seats.

I'll post pics...

Well, what did I do with my Brand spankin new FR-s series 2.0 today? Brought it home from the dealer , wife says we need milk-so I made a short grocery run. Tomorrow early I expect to see nice country roads.

More lows good, Megan bad. My thoughts for the day. Be aware it gets tricky being low. Can't enter all driveways, can't get your jack under the car, tires rub when turning depending on angle and speed, etc. I was pretty low and ended up raising it about an inch to rub less and for better performance.
