yea, i think i just made a new word.
anyway.... i covered my pillars, and because i had extra, my arm rest as well in black micro-suede. it looks pretty pimp. i didn't finish until it was pretty much pitch black outside , and the pictures i tried taking looked like dookie with the flash. so i will take better pictures in the morning for ya'll to take a gander at.
but micro-suede is pretty pimp! |

| looks good, you need to do the headliner and such to finish it all out but i like it. did you glass around the pillars or do you still have the pvc sticking out? |

no glass. i just painted them a matte black and did the pillars in black so it will all blend together. doesn't look half bad IMO.
i may still end up glassing them.... we''ll see.
also, i wasn't planning to do the headliner, but i probably will finish the rest of the pillars in the black suede as well. |

Suede is nice!! Always reminds me of an Audi or something.
Did you use ultra-suede or regular? Where did you get it? How did you attach it- just regular glue or? |

yea, this is my first time messing with suede and i like it
it's micro-suede in black. i got a square yard of it at a local place called Joann fabrics for $9. used Elmers multi-purpose spray adhesive in a can. worked very well. |

and it doesn't hurt your arm or elbow like the stock fabric does. |
