Leather Interior Panel Kit... Any Interest??
I was thinking of putting a leather interior panel kit together for the 97-02 F-Body. The main reason you would want to do this is because the plastic panels really cheapen the feel of the interior. If you notice, most expensive sport or luxury cars cover the interior panels in material.
Now it wouldn't be real leather but a high quality automotive imitation and only one color: Ebony (black). The material would be pre-cut to fit each panel, come with detailed instructions, 1qt of high quality Contact Adhesive, Brushes, and Sand Paper. All you would need is a razor & heat gun (hair dryer). I still have to finalize all the panels that it would cover but basically it would cover all the hard plastic interior pieces excluding the dash. Looks like the price would be $200-$250 a kit. I'm not 100% positive on the price yet as I still need to make the kits but that's the price range it's looking like as of now.
I'm for sure going to cover the panels in my Camaro but if there is enough interest I'll put together a kit for you guys too
So let me know what your thoughts are and please vote if interested!
Below are some pictures of the material I will be using and the last picture shows the material laying next to the stock '01-'02 Ebony (black) seats:
