!!!!Finally my suede interior!!!!

First, I have no clue why my camera makes the suede look grayishhh . I'm guessing is the flash that's to bright but in person looks nice and black I love it.

Second, I've been working getting my interior covered up with suede for 5 days now. Finally, I was able to ALMOST finish putting everything back together but I had little time . The upholstery shop called me and said my headliner and the other interior plastics had been covered up with suede, by 5:00pm I was here at home putting everything back together I still have to install some minor parts(sun visors seat belt covers & front pillars) but so far this is what it looks like, let me know what you guys think. I will have updated pictures tomorrow when everything is done .

I paid $200 for everything rear plastics or whatver they called the side & and the front and headliner, but i had to remove the headliner. I'm sure if the upholstery shop removes the headliner will cost more

$200 is super cheap!!!! I paid $250 for just 3 pieces of dash trim, and the top of the center consol/ash tray!
Where did you get the black trim pieces, the grab handles ect?
