1 question, Have you thought about doing the back seat part of the coupe??

I'm pretty sure none of the civics do, it was part you had to order from Australia but you cant get them anymore?

If this is wrong someone point me in the right direction because I wanna install a red one.

Na there is no real fix for that man. You try and scrub it out it will just start tearing up the fabric. Change it out. I've done that for my car once and a few times on other's cars.

There is no way to fix it. You are gonna have to peel it off and get a new piece. When you apply adhesive make sure you wait 5 min before applying the fabric. The acetone in the glue needs to evaporate out of it or the glue will bleed through. I accidentally messed mine up the first time had to redo it for this reason. No biggy its a learning experience.

Ah, the center console is easy. Just removed the console. Taped off the elbow rest, and went crazy with paint. LOL.

Yeah, I'm thinking later on i'm going to redo the back pillars in black suede instead of the red. No way i'm getting into the sunroof again. Like the visors the way they are once I get the black piping on them. So probably just the back pillars in black and i'm good.

You did a good job but I don't like the red parts on the visors and sun roof. If it was black then it would be cool. just my opinion.
