finished these a few days ago. I couldn't resist the tweed looking pattern. I did the rear speaker cards too but I didn't take any pics.

Yea I used some of that polyester quilter's padding underneath and used some spray adhesive to hold it in place.

looks great! I had to resist the same tempation on my vert, I opted for a solid color suede but they had so many cool patterns and plaids at the fabric store!
Thanks! I went to Joann Fabric and I saw this in the for sale aisle and I couldn't resist. I also bought some tan suede as well that will match just in case I change my mind in the future.

I'm assuming that you're talking about the leather on the door panels. If so, get dye from leather world tech. A bunch of us have used it with great results. Works on the seats too, but be careful to tape off the black piping on your CE or you'll dye that and it won't come off.

IJ, did you dye the whole interior? (I've read your thread, but can't recall).
Yep, full color change from faded grey to black. I am very happy with it, and have done lots of top-down driving this summer and no sun damage yet. This stuff impressed the heck outta me.

Plus, I spy VOLVO!
Yup, that's Mrs IJ's S70 T5. Awesome sleeper sedan, with more HP than a viggen and less lag. I heart the turbo inline five. If they get around to making an AWD C30R I'm in.
