Interior fabric makes TeLLy ambitious

Well guys, I think I'm gonna do up my door panel fabric this weekend, using the DIY on this site. Perhaps ultrasuede in dark grey....he he.

Should I do my headliner too? There's a cigarette burn in the driver's side. Not noticable, but I know it's there, and that's enough to drive me insane.

Well, I can't find anywhere selling a bolt of ultrasuede wide enough to do the headliner...damn. Well, maybe if and when I get custom seats.....or maybe never...*sigh*

Well, didn't get to do the headliner...YET. But I got the door panels done:






Feels good to finish something I've wanted to do for so long.

I dunno, but I really am having a tough time thinkin up things to do with some areas. I think to myself "OK it CAN be improved, but can I afford the cash or downtime?". Remember I drive this car every single day; I can't be without a ride for even 12 hours. So some ideas will have to rest until I win the lottery and get a second car.

I can think of some ideas that you have thought of too .. just haven't gotten around to because of time

I'm in the same boat, but its got lots of holes it in too (ie I am not about to try and make a yacht out of a sinking rowboat )
