Well, after 4 hours hard work, 12 beers and a lot of cursing im finished my interior :P :P :P

Black leather seats (costly but oh so worth it) and all the door trims in white vinyl (much harder than it looks) and a new head unit installed (why must mitsubishi make removing the centre console so hard) and the interior is on its way to being finished. Next stop - console painting so if anybody has some tips, PLEASE SHARE

Will be posting pics tomorrow or the next day

centre consol hard to get out? its all clipped in, theres what? 6-7 screws to undo?.......... but yeh get them pics up

Oy You!!! Pics!!! :p

dunno maybe the beer made it hard,
anyway here are the pics
first 4 are of the interior.
the last one is just a pic of my custom lights, which i realised i havent posted yet.

hope you like em as much as i do

so is that the ebay "leather"? or you get someone to make it up 4 ya? looks pretty nice, i woulda gone the black door trims tho, like the beer idea tho...

nuh it aint the crappy ebay leather, mate got it and hated it!!!!
Got it made by C.A.S.T (Custom Auto Sports Trim) in Perth
Cost 1200 but its real leather, non of this fake crap

Hmmmmmmmmmm I dont like it :(

BUT if you like it then hell, glad youre happy, hope you look after it and get some nice comments from the ladies :D

hehe

imo the leather is no good, prefer verada leather (which im dying to get), and the dark lights dont really suit the white car (would look freakin awesome on black), but im sure there are a lot of people out there who would love it :)

so it turns out noone likes it except me....:cry:

black leather looks hot

Then it is good isn't it, you are the only person who needs to like it.

Park the car in the sun for a while and the leather will shrink down around the seats better.

Steve

cheers mate.. good tip :D

I like it...:D tis grand...though yeah should'a coloured coded it cam...

Just to stray off topic, has anyone done white vinyl on the bottom of the door trims...i'm to scared to try.

yeh i was gonna ask if they were the e-bay seat cover leather things aswell cos they seemed a bit loose on the seats on some areas, but yeh looks ok, should change them door cards but might look better with some more white splashed around, good luck

get them to cut the hole for the lumbar support and they will fit better.

-change the door trims to black
-spray the c/console and dash surround gloss black
-re-trim the arm rest cover in black

no the honda sticker spoils it :P

no the honda sticker spoils it :P

haha nice reply!

gota support my bikes!

ive considered doing the map pockets in finyl as well, but to get the top lip proper would be damn hard.. the only thing i could think to counter it out would be to put some of that chrome strip stuff along the edge to hide the join

as for those black lights, hell yeah that looks the good :D

look man as long as you like it who cares, if i did what everyone else thought i would have sold my car ages ago but as long as you like it and enjoy it that is the main thing. also doesn't everything look better when you have put all your hard time and effort into your project and car (or money on some cases) but it looks really cool man will love to see the finished project man should look sweet

There are 2 types of leather seat covers you can buy off eBay
First type is the one that slips on over your original seats
Second type is the original leather covers made for American Diamante models which requires the original fabric to be taken off so the leather can be put in its place
I personally went for the second type and this is what i ended up with:

looks sh*t...........hot haha, i love the rumpled/folded leather look, looks very nice mohit

How ar eyour tail lights custom? Who did them and what was done to them?

Leather interior looks good mate but I would passed on the white in the doors. I say make the door trims black and you would be sweet.

Nice interior to the both of you!

I like the white door cards, looks different, the white contrasts the black.

Some more white details and it will look really good.

That looks real nice, very impressive.

If you get a hair dryer and heat the seats up, carefully then you should be able to get some of the looseness out of the rear seats. This is cause the leather shrinks with a bit of heat.

I only found this out at Auto Salon when the trimmer was looking at some cars with me.
