Ok guys. I need advice/opinions on getting my seats reupholstered.

I don't have nice pics at the moment but I found these on photobucket. It will give you guys an indication of how the colour scheme looks. Keeping in mind most of the interior is grey some bits are black. :?

 

I have to replace the upholstery on the seats. The drivers seat upholstery is damaged beyond repair. And since it's $%^& impossible to get that upholstery I have to change it to something else.... :confused4:

 

I was thinking about going semi-leather. Greyish ofcourse but i'm very open to opinions. I'm clueless as to what will look good.

 

The pics....

Finally managed to buy a set of coilovers. :)

 

A few quick pics of how it sits currently.

I still need to find longer wheel bolts so i can fit my spacers. Have tried every shop in town and no one stocks it.. :(

 

I have to add, it might not look low in the pics but i can't get over any speed bump whatsoever, that's how low it is.. :D

 

Anyway, it's about the height i want, but i need to seriously space the wheels out..

Very slammed, but how will you fit spacers and keep the height you want? The tyre must be close to the inside arch as it is or are you having the arches pulled?

Hi. I'm not going to pull the arches for these wheels, if i had proper wheels then yeh i would have gone the extra mile. I only plan on rolling the fenders and then fitting 10-12mm spacers at the back and maybe a 8mm spacer at the front. If it rubs then it rubs, will have to get some 16" wheels with some stretch. :D

So we had a bit of a strong wind in town and this is what happened...

 

I almost shat myself...

Luckily no damage was done.
