This was my weekend project...............


BEFORE:



After:




And I'm always looking for ways to upgrade the interior since that's the place where i feel the evo is really lacking. And I really didn't like how the seats and everything were black but the pillars and headliner were gray.

So here's what i ended up with.

BEFORE:





AFTER:



My g/f just finshed stitching my visors.....



And here's some random shots of the interior:





All in all I think it turned out pretty well, but it was a true pain in the *** at time!

 

Im doing the suede this tuesday...sure looks like a PIA haha nice though!

 

It really wasn't that bad. The visors are a true PITA, I actually gave up on them, but my g/f made them look pretty decent.

 

suede looks absolutely gorgeous. how much did the suede cost? was it hard to do? where did you buy it?

 

I like the before headlights more, but it's what you like. Interior looks pretty good.

 

I paid roughly $50, it's synthetic suede whatever that means. I got it from a local store here I think it was called joans fabrics or something like that.

 

Nicely done!

 

how long did it take you to do your headlights? i wanna do the same thing

 

Well I did it all together and it took me 2 days. I think the headlights alone can be done in about 5-7 hours. You can easily get the lights off the car 30 minutes TOPS. Put them in the oven for 15 minutes. Taking them apart is probably an hour (only one fit in the oven at a time). Then painting is 2-4 hours depending on how long you let it dry after the last coat. Say another hour to put them back together and put them back on the car.

Doing the interior and the lights at the same time was no the best idea, as i kept getting distracted. So i think it actually took me LONGER than it would've have taken to just do one at a time.

 

Wanna do my interior???

 

If you were local I would! I'd just have to convince my g/f to do your visors! haha.

 

Damn it.. Where do u live.. Ill stick my car on a plane and fly over haha

 

Looks pretty good.

How did you (or your) girlfriend sew around the mirror insert of the visors?


$50.00 is pretty cheap for all that synthetic suede.


BTW, I would love to see somebody do a lighter colored suede; a color that may match the OEM light gray.

 

Nice swede interior man

 

any other pics of the dvd setup? looks like it sticks out alot
