How would I go about this? I'm talking about re-upholstering the whole carpet, the seats, the door panels, as well as everything vinyl and leather: the dash, the console, everything. Red. The upholster process is basic, but how should and would a shop paint the vinyl all on the dash (or is it leather?). 92 Precidia

Was the car owner a girl or a gay guy?

i'd really like to see pics... cuz i'm just guessing here but when u do a 2 tone idea such as red and black u go with having a red black interior not having a black exterior and red interior.... ur not really seeing the 2 together unless u have every single window, door, and hatch open for everyone to see... if ur going fora show car then maybe but is that what ur goin for?

if you're talking about my car, thanks for the complement. i'd be a hypocrite if i said i do mind because i stole taras's pattern (with his permission).

it was installed well before i got out here, don't worry.
btw, illapino would you consider different shades of red? you definitely need contrast to make it work show or not.
