The first owner of my car put two nasty cigarette burns along the top of the driver side window in the fabric. I'm sick of looking at them so... Any ideas on how to fix them? or how much it would cost to have it re-upholstered?

Sorry about the poor image quality. Pictures were taken with my phone.




This one is pretty deep.


This one isn't as deep as the other, but it still burnt through the fabric a little.

 

yeah i need help on this to..

 

1st step... shouldnt smoke in teh first place =P anywho i'd just get the whole this re-upholstered with something unique... or just upholster it yourself, cheaper =]

btw ur in indy? why dont you go to the richmond scion skate contest?

 

he didn't the first owner did

 

Looks like it's time for a custom interior. Suede FTW.

 

Suede it! Do it!

 

suede the roof..

 

How much would suede cost to put in?

 

if you know someone in your area that can do it that would be best. Unless you willing to travel to chicago I know a guy that does a great job.

 

Maybe $50 for materials to microsuede the roof if you've got enough experience to do it yourself. Otherwise probably a few hundred at a shop

 

wow....that sucks! I'm very touchy when it comes to my car... I dont smoke, (know you dont either), hell I wont even let a soda sit in the cupholder...no food/drink in my baby.
most of my experience is with building...not as much for reupolstering...but if what the guy above said if you can get the fabric cheaper...then go for it... On the A-pillar...maybe you could find a good used one w/o marks on it... if you do just make sure it is the breakaway one since you have the side SRS airbags.
If you re-fab it yourself/or have a shop do it...please re-post with new pics...and let the rest of us know how it went with costs and maybe a few DIY steps...Im sure you're not the only one that has had interior damage.
thanks.

 

I wont buy a car that has been smoked in.. cant believe someone would destroy their car like that.

 

x2. Smoking = Interior completely ruined forever.

 

ya. suede the interior. best way to get rid of those.

 

oh X3 can I get a "hell yeah"..... that is just so wrong smoking in any car....
I would never buy one that had been....or let anyone get within 10 feet of smoking near my baby.

 

I feel sorry for your damaged. you should give up local cigarette and try e cigarette which is free from those danger. i am thinking about new one. what is journey with e cigarette please share with me.
