Beautiful!
How hard is it to install the leather on the doors? How long did it take you? Like Dr Jkel asked, do you still have the ABL? Wow. It looks really classy. |

I had this planned from day one. Nope. Not with the leather. Quote:
The leather came in an already molded and wrapped panel. It took about 3 hours on the one door. Still have to do the other. I found that I had to do some grinding and cutting on the new panel to make it fit correctly. Wasn't expecting that. Screwing into the panel only leaves you about a quarter inch to screw into. Can't go any further or you go all the way through the plastic. The plastic will strip easy so if you don't find JUST the right size screw and washers you can't get it to hold. Plus the new panels were molded such that it wouldn't go all flush on the right side of the panel. Had to dremel a lot to get it to fit flush. I like it a lot. Now I gotta do the other door. :( |

Too bad the ABL is gone, I might try black but would still like the ABL. Your car does look great, now hurry up on the other one. It's only 102 in the shade today so why are you waiting.LOL

Pics of both sides. Tried to show the difference in panels but can't see well in pics. Really a must see in person to get the real effect.

We've been nubbed or is that snubbed?
PQ: Is the piece around the shifter easy to take out and replace? I may get that piece in leather to get rid of the plastic piece. |
