interior work
i posted in the interior, audio, and electronics forum but i guess it should go here since it has photos. well check it out and let me know what you think
I got bored with the stock look and wanted to customize the interior a bit. I started playing with fiberglass and this is what I've come up with so far. This is my first time attempting a project like this. Let me know what you all think here are some pictures of the progress so far.
First layer of fiberglass
Test fitting the speaker ring
Quick test fit with the speaker and making sure the door operates as normal, also added blue leds inside the enclosure
Upper door panel
Entire door panel wrapped in black and blue suede
Front door panel installed
The rear panel wrapped

You could have made the entire door panel black suede with only the blue door handle/cover and the switch cover. But I actually kind of like it. Definitely catches the eye when the door is open

I think blue leather would of look better (just my opninion) not really feeling the black and blue suede and the speaker. Or instead of blue and black suede how about black and grey Bride fabric pattern. something like this (check out the interior on the civic, simple)

Hey man I'm looking in to doing the same thing but just to the parts where you have blue, but I was wondering where did you get your material and how hard was it to do?
