        that's awesome! Any details on material (kind of looks like suede or ultasuede in the pics). Did you have to scuff up the plastic to help the glue adhire?

              That looks great. I have been wanting to do this for a long time. I would like to cover the top of the dash to reduce glair. Are you using ultra-sued or the real stuff?

                That's a nice job, I did the same on a girlfriends Metro Turbo and it makes a big differnce to the appearance of the car.

                I used spray adhesive which gives an even coating and is easy to apply.

                  I did nothing to the plastic, just laid glue on both plastic and cloth. The material is 100% poliester, but very cool at touch. It is best imitation of suede there is. And most importantly it is very thin, so you dont get spaces...

                    Like said, it is a very good imitation, and what is important it is very thin. The dash job would too difficould for me, it needs a lot of sawing... ill skip it, but good luck!

                            I will, i just have to figure out how to do the piece around the visors and the roof light. It will require sawing, and i am not really practical in that...
