The trim inserts were coming off in the back, so I decided to change it up a little. I went to a fabric store in town, and they had suede close to the color of my car, so I decided to give it a shot. After about 2 hours, they look a hell of a lot better, just a PITA!!! Let me know what you think!

 

thta looks nice. i like it cuz it matches teh color of your car. are you going to two-tone more of the inside?

 

I think I'm going to do the shift boot and the armrest right now. Not sure what else I would do.

 

Looks great. I've been getting interested in interior work and might have some questions for you in the future.

 

nice work man. i had the interior of my old car two-toned with carbon fiber i just posted pics of it in the new member section .. it looks good keep me posted with updated pics..

 

Pads are the color of the car.
Car looks nicer and cleaner.
You should decorate this two-tone car

 

That looks great man! I've been considering this myself. I've taken the door panel off before, but didn't pay too much attention to how the inserts (the part covered with suede) come out. Is it pretty straight forward once the door panel is off?

 

Hi

I like what you have done here, I have been trying to do the same for a while with a velour type fabric, but have struggled due to adhesive bleeding through and lacking the knowledge of how to wrap the curves, do you have any tips on how you lay the fabric over and what type of adhesive you used.

I'd really appreciate any help, completely reupholstering myself.

Thanks

 

I used an aerosol adhesive spray, and did it pretty light so it didn't bleed through, but enough to stick. The factory uses a foam padding adhesive, not sure where to get it. Just take your time, cut the fabric to wrap around the panel, and have extra in case you don't like how it turns out. I also started at one edge, and slowly work my way across so I hit all the contours smoothly.

 

You also have to screw the panel back onto the door with small screws so that they sit flush
