Looks great mate! Only thing I would do is do the silver heater surrounds in the same colour and maybe some of the other silver bits to match :)

 

agree, they look wofully poor. match them up. or I would suggest, black them out!

Didn't think I would like it, but looks great!

 

The only thing for is, I would do the gear gaiter in black, to contrast the rest of the surround. I my eyes, it looks like too much orange/copper there at the moment. Not my car though!

Yes with you there. There's a few on here that have bought black suade ones with contrasting stitching. Gonna go with that I think. Need to find that link though. Cheers.

Real suede will fade ridiculously quickly inside a car!

:thumbs: That'd look good. I would have a word with Mondo about it, as the stuff he has done for members looks awesome! He's the chap sandwiched between our posts! :scare:

Hi mondo. So how much would a black perforated leather gaiter with amber stitching cost us guys?? Thank. Also additional cost for maybe an embroided logo?

You can't have embroidery on perforated leather, I'm afraid - due to the perforation holes.

 

A gaiter in black perforated leather with amber topstitching would be £10.00 including delivery :)

So next off Ive just bought a small 3.5" screen off ebay for the reversing camera which will sit nicely near the top of the tablet.

 

Hopefully doors off week end to paint the lower sections with copper gold and the door handles and door switch surrounds wrapped.

 

In the process of wrapping the centre vent surrounds, which as you can see are missing off the dash.

Arrgghhh.

 

Anyway, if you remember I took the doors off the small cubbies and have sorted the power supply so that they will be lit from the inside.

So these are the masks I've made last night. 5mm Perspex with vinyl fronts. I tried to make the zed look like a welsh dragon, as I'm welsh. Got to sort out some 12v lighting from eBay then all can be put on with 3m double sided tape just in case they need to be popped off at some point.

So nearly there now. Door handles, switch surrounds and steering wheel left to do.

 

The copper foil looked crap on the vent surrounds so had a go painting them then brushed them with sand paper to get that brushed looked. Im ok pleased with them.

 

Also need to change the lights in the cubbies to orange as and when I find any.
