I've already done black suede on my rear deck, a-pillars, rear ashtray cover, ebrake sleeve, shift boot, and all the wood beltline trim pieces. Just have to finish up with b and c-pillars and headliner. I love the look - almost unique (only saw a couple cars with suede headliners and no one else with the beltline and ebrake suede).

Sounds good. I'm at work until 3 or so but I can take a long lunch if need be and meet you. And the trim removal is pretty easy except for the clips that secure the long dash trim piece - those suck but they're manageable. All the others are cake. I'll show you.

Good thread!

Looking forward seeing those mods done Emilgevor!

As for mine, I'm hoping to get BBK installed by the end of this summer. I'm still deciding which one I'm gonna go with. I'm debating if I should just go for the Porsche or take it further and get the Brembo Gran Turismo kit.

You could always do the diode mod. I ordered some a couple days ago off of ebay for $2.50 with shipping. Search the forum for it.
