I love it, but I wouldn't know what color to do with my silver car. I'll have to run over to the fabric store and check out what colors they have. Thanks for the DIY!

Seems like a big project. I would try it if I had more time, since the stock covers are already starting to bubble.

All that carbon fiber cloth on ebay is what they use before they add resin and harnder. I just want some Cloth that looks like carbon fiber.

YOUR DIY!!!!! Well I guess it is since Turtle did this first to a Sedan, and this is the first I remember on the coupe. Looks awesome though. I actually bought the material to do mine about 6 months ago but just haven't gotten around to it. I guess that's what I get for being lazy. It's good to hear that you have the DIY bug again. Now get busy and figure out some more **** for me to do cheap! I will probably do this soon, car's going in the shop so I might as well take the door panels out for them

Absolutely anything you want. You could go to Wal-Mart and get some leopard print if you wanted to. Then just put a small foam backing behind it so it didn't look like cheap wal-mart fabric. Most people use Vinyl or leather but I've got some red jersey knit material that I'm using. I'm also trying something I saw on a tv show where I will put foam behind it into some kind of design so it's 3D.
