Nope, not gonna do it, I actually GTmat'd the S2000 trunk yesterday... its good stuff.

eastwest2300 · 02-19-2013, 02:36 PM

Thank you maam!

It's sloooowly coming together

Alcantara shift boot and armrest cover (PITA to wrap and glue... if I could do it again I could do a better job I think)

Still have to replace the rest of the center console leather with Alcantara but haven't gotten around to it yet. The door cars are still a few weeks out.

Work will start on the convertible top inner liner (ultrasuede) in a few weeks.

Very nice sir.

chieuxuan · 02-19-2013, 05:47 PM

Steve, do the shift boot again and give me the one pictured

aniceh · 02-19-2013, 06:59 PM

Hot!!!

eastwest2300 · 02-19-2013, 07:29 PM

I wonder if you can use hog rings to tighten that material down for a really nice snug fit? hmm.

Its what holds your seat material in place.. sort of. Basically.

The tight fit is just glue and cutting the fabric correctly for the corners. I got a little impatient in areas. And I don't think alcantara stretches and conforms to corners as well as soft leather does, so it was a bit of a challenge for the first time.

Hog rings and metal rods woulda tightened it down.

Nope. They fit in seats, not in all this trim.
