It's really not so bad. Go to Freight Harbor Tools or even Home Depot and pick yourself up some trim tools.. I literally did that much in 5 minutes. I got blue fabric dye pen as well to color the snipped ends (white on the indside) but you could also burn them with a light to seal them in.

I am going to try to go around the rest of the panels, tops on mine seem to have ZERO gap, but and going to do my best to pop a corner up and feed it through.

NICE!

Did you get the idea from a Challenger forum? - It's a very popular mod with that crowd, but using vinyl piping and welt.

Looks cool.

Very clever use of resources. I like it..a lot. How long have you had it in now? Wonder how long it'll last before you have to "retighten" it back in position.

I'll take more pics tonight.. actually got it to go on the top too. Looks a lot better.

Those panels are in there so tight I don't see them moving. Will keep you updated though.

I've had mine in place for years and had not had to do much.

MackMan · 05-23-2013, 07:46 PM

I did this a while ago as well. I liked it but eventually painted my trim blue instead.

Was this done with the same material?

MackMan · 05-23-2013, 08:46 PM

The trim, yep. Exact same thing.

My wife did this in her new Cruze... she DOES listen to the things I say!
