Does it fade or discolour from sun? I remember doing that to my corolla but it was crush velvet(lol dont ask) and the black faded to gray where the sun hit the fabric.

They have a couple grades of suede...the claiborne is their highest grade. Fading should be an issue unless you get the cheap stuff.

I really like that suede! Looking great!
Wood= Eh.* Have you thought of painting it, or are you just going to leave it for a luxury look?
