Original. Should go well with the dark green exterior.

On what parts exactly are you going to put this on?

Dont think I like the A pillars nor the C, but inserts are surprisingly not bad.

This isn't a 1970's VW bug we're talking about...

I personally wouldn't do it.

The inserts look surprisingly well. But it needs to be done correctly.

Is your cloth thick enough to do the seats with? It looks kind of thin to me.

IMO this kind of treatment works best in vintage style cars like the previously mentioned VDub or any kind of retro-style roadster. Just doesn't suit a car like the GS.

Considering you're in the netherlands, i think you will get a different perception of that fabric from many of us posting in the US.

Here it is associated with being "DUB" or tacky. I think a lot of people would agree that phase has passed here in the US and anyone doing it now would be lame.

But you live in a completely different country where it could be original. Here in Houston, TX it would be pretty ghetto
