LOL @ the floor mats. I completely agree, I've had them since I got the car and was not about to get Lexus All weather mats since the damn drivers side wears through. Think I might just get some clear ones after I get my rims.


As far as the cloth go's, I personally got it from this guy Email: sales@euro-dyne.com. Email him and ask if he has any more of the CF Twill Cloth left. It is 35 for the first yard shipped and 32.50 I think for every additional yard.

More shots of the interior coming later tonight.


ALSO!! is there a way to take the silver part off of the door handle? I would love to wrap those as well on each door.

Wow! that looks really good! how many yard does our car need to wrap stuff around? do you think it'll come off later if you want to remove it? I think this stuff is much better than the overlay imo.

Fully reversible on wood trim. I know the silver sides next to the ashtray were not so lucky as I had to redo them because I didnt pay attention to the weave, Paint began to crack a little so you could always just have those resprayed or not do it to them.

As per yards, I dont know exactly. I bought 4 because I wanted to have it and planned on doing more than 1 car. I am sure you would be fine with 1 yard if you dont have any redo's or 2 to be on the safe side.

I just ordered a bunch of this stuff but wasn't sure how to do the cut outs properly (like around the shifter and around the window controls). How did you make your cuts look so clean? I was worried the fabric might fray around the cut outs, but it looks like it did not... can you provide some more detail on that?

Oh yeah... I have a feeling this year will be a big year for Import car shows, thanks to Paul Walker and Vin Diesel.

I was thinking about this... but I am too broke to experiment on stuff. If anyone in Northern VA gets this done... let us know, I want to see it in person.
