Type R coupe? (style)

well this weekend i decide to give a lil life to my interior... so, about 3 weeks ago i was in San Antonio and decide to buy some red suede fabric and the red carpet
and this last weekend i start the transformation

friday @ 20.00 hours i left the car whit a pro-upholster, the floor carpet its an overlay from the original... a upholster do it for 90.09 dlls and its doing me the floor mats for 45 dlls (the floor mats are gonna be brand new, i mean... no overlay from stocks) by saturday he start working on it at 9.00 hours then at 12.00 hours i have the car ready... my GF pick it up cus i was in texas....

then on sunday i wake up at 11.00 hours, go and pick up my GF and we came back to home to start doing the door inserts... also dads help us
it take some time in the first door... about 2 hours... (yeah, its too much... but we where thiking a lot how to do it right) and about 30-40 min in the passenger side door....

i love how it looks.... the door insert is real suede.... not butter suede like someone used... btw its the same... both looks awesome...

let me know what do you think












and here its my newpew(spell?) Oscar and the family rabbit... CHEBA...




and my working zone lol

Looks good. I like the red seats and the green harness. I personally think the strutking pedals are nicer and cheaper. You can get 4 pedals at a cheaper price than what you can get three Mugen pedals for.

I hope you have clean feet.
