Are those actual works or the rotas? Specs? I've been thinking of those for a little bit now

Car looks good man. I used duplicolor originally and had to redo several pieces with sem. Best of luck with yours. Overall love the setup.

Friend of mine did that to his lexus, came out great except after a couple months the seats would get scratched from things like the little rivets on ppls jeans or their keys. The seats had a different (fake?) feel to them too. Looks good but I would get the seats reupholstered in black at least. Theres some places here in orlando that a friend of mine gets his seats redone in faux leather for $150 a seat. Of course he owns a body shop so his prices are cheaper but it beats paying $1000 for the interior. That dupli color really looks good on door panels and carpet though
