So I got the carpet in, never again will I even attempt it. I let it set out in the sun for a couple hours and get nice and warm so it would be easier to maneuver, yeah not so much. But I got it in, front went pretty good, there's a few places where it's not so tight, but you don't really see those places. I had to paint my back quarter panels as they had some bad fade on them I didn't see until yesterday.







The painted panels, which may make me have to paint the others so they match.


And this is how I finished today.




You really have to picture it all with all black seats. That'll happen after the new year.

Huh, I didn't have any problems installing the carpet in my car

And I hear you on having a hard time finding the right interior panels. I've been looking for one of the back panels for my car for years, and have yet to find one. The problem I have is that 93-95 cars had a different shade of tan than the 96-02 cars. I need the former.

Well I did some work tonight and got everything pretty much done. I got a new door handle trim for the passenger side and that triangle mirror trim piece for the drivers side coming. They just broke on me when I was taking them off. Should be here someday soon, but other than those two things, it's done.

Here's a before.


And the afters.





I have to get in there and clean and armorall everything up, but it looks stellar from what it did. And I got some new floor mats coming that are black with a embroidered bowtie in dark green, to match the shift boot. And I've talked to a guy here in town about doing some new leather for me that black with the perforated center with dark green stitching. but that won't happen until after the new year.

There's two tone, the ones I've had for a while now. Black with a tan center. Yeah those pictures make everything look off. I'm going to have to get some out in the sunlight.

Just got these in today, the green is darker than it looks in the pics, matches really well.
