Hey guys, I have ordered the neoprene covers for the front so they are protected. I have already scotch guarded the interior.

It will be hard to keep clean, i will do it. Trust me!

Yes I will be changing the ugly grey for the dome light / map lights and visors etc. next week the car goes back into the shop to finish those off in black and a few other things.

Dave PM me, lets enter the March show together (Performance world / dark knights....

Thanks
Kris

wow the amount of people who are actually looking to do something similar to this! Guys it wasnt tough at all. I actually bought an additional set of Seat covers off of ebay and gave the upholsterer them to work on. I was thinking about aftermarket seats. But i like the stock seats in the 8. they just needed a bit of sprucin up.

I was going to do red inserts, but than i seen like 30 different cars at various car shows with red interiors. So i was like nehhh....

Dave i got your message, is rockstar doing anything at the show? I have my installer that wants to go as a team but not sure when he will get around to organizing everything.

I got your PM I will email you the details when i talk to him tomorrow.

the car is not driven that much either. I have 18000 KM on it in 18 months. so around 300ish KM a week.

Its actually almost similar to the Shinka interior. just white.
This is really bad... but let's hope your fiancee doesn't pull a number out of superbad

Kris,

I noticed that you are having some of your plastic pieces done in black. I'm looking to do this myself for an all black interior and I was just curious what was being used to change them black. I would prefer not to have spray painted pieces in the vehicle, but if that is unavoidable so be it. Thanks!

Zeon
