i ignore this thread for a couple months and come back to fully reupholstered white leather interior!!! omfg. i don't even know what to say...

it's crazy!

props for doing what you want. not my style personally, but i don't not like it... you know what i mean? it's unique and your own style and that's what matters in the tuner/sport compact scene.

just one thing is bothering me though... did you have the seats redone? not reupholstered, like actually taken apart and re-foamed? those seats are so uncomfortable. i really think you should have gotten some other seats before you had them re-wrapped. just throwing that out there.

now you definitely need a white leather top to go with the interior. that would absolutely be the cherry on the sundae.

can we get a picture of how the HUD turned out and possibly with it powered od?

keep up the good work!

Hi.I will take some pics from the hud when I´m there next, think today Here´s antother pic from my trunk, it will take some leather when I finished it but I think you can see how I built it ... My biggest problem is that my wheels are out of stock I took the wheels from a friends skyline. they are 8 and 9x17 they will be powder coated white and get new tires and spacers.I think I can drive arround for some time

Car is coming along great....love the color.

The interior is going to be hard to keep clean. The wheels look good, proper spacers for the rears and you will be set. I think you should keep them the original color.

That sucks about the money. I use my vert as a daily driver so i take it out when it is raining and such. I am finally getting the leaks fixed. Have you ever had anyone broken into the vert?

With all the awesome stuff in it, it is possible. When you were installing the digital gauge did it work without the HUD unit or did you have to install it after all?

I like the flow of front bumper, side skirt and rear valance. What kind of rear valance is that? I've never seen it before?
