Could you go into a bit more detail on how you did the suede interior? It looks more subtle than alcantara, what material and adhesive did you use? Pleased with how it came out?

All I did was buy the material at Joann's Fabric which was roughly $10 and then some 3M Spray adhesive. Spray the fabric, stick / stretch the material and hold for a minute then cut and glue the corners.

Those suede wraps look really good. Can you take some more pictures with brighter lighting please? I will ask my wife to do this for me. I think she can do it. LOL

Love the work man!

When you have the time, would you be able to post a closer photo of your front bumper? I am interested in filling the holes on my front bumper as well but I have heard that it would be difficult due to it being textured.

Thanks,
Inextirpable

Dangg those look really nice man!

So much better than silver plastic panels for sure. I may beg my wife to do that for me. We'll go pick up some material.

Is it easy to take off all those panels?

the only one's that take some time are around the a/c controls because you have to remove the whole center console but it's not that big of a deal
