Alright I finished the driver's side A pillar tonight, wicked happy with it, came out flawless?!

Not that it's very difficult to wrap the A pillars... but still.

All I have to do is cut out a little hole where the sensor is and it'll be good to go.

Oh and my command center for the week...

Tomorrow I'm bringing the other pillar with me to work because I'm doing a double again so I'll try to finish it on my hour and a half break. Then wednesday hopefully I can make more progress with yanking stuff out of the car and wrapping it. The weather here has been rainy, hot and humid. Not a good time to work with fabric, glue and paint .

After I did my rear deck I waited at least a month before I started on any other suede work, so I see where you're coming from.

Good news! My boss found someone else to work tonight so no double for me! Hopefully I can get the headliner out today... or at least the rear pillars.

Ugly grey leatherette. You can see them on the first page!

In the future I may swap my seats. I'm not sure yet. I picked this color to go with the wood grain trim, I really like it so I figured why not. My goal with this suede/paint is to get rid of all the grey bits in the car, aside from the carpet and seats which like I said earlier, will probably be getting swapped.

Be interesting to see how you tie those together. I was thinking there was someone else around here who did some his arm rest and door inserts in a stitching that matched the inserts in the race seats he bought. Can't find the thread now.

A42.8Tuner or whatever his name is. I'm sure that's who you're thinking of, orange stitching correct? Car was in EuroTuner etc. etc.
