Door panels almost done. Need to recover the inserts in black and do something with the arm rests. I'm thinking wrap them in black leather with a double stitch seam for a classy look

You can epoxy, speqker grille mesh from behind/inside the dash for those defrost vents.

Which defrost vents? You mean the ones on top of the dash? Hell I forgot all about those needing done still haha. I have had a towel covering it up for so long i forgot

For sure man! It’s been way to long haha! I still have to put the big brake setup on it and repaint it. Damn why did I remind myself! Thank you and I’ll post more pictures of it so you can see. Outside looks like a shit box and the inside looks like it’s ready to go to a car show!

So I'm still tossing around the idea of painting the door panels either black with letter inserts like I did hear and covering the armrests in matching leather or maybe it will look better with the door panels color matched with black inserts and armrests. Keep in mind all the pillars are wrapped in leather. Give me your honest opinion on what color combo you like best

Black panels! I got black on black except the pillers and roof! They gray, wanna go all black! Good job! How spendy were the supply's?

Dude I probably have over 800 in just paint and supplies and last night I painted all the trim and still didnt have enough paint. I already went thru 2 quarts of just the sem paint and I'm going to have to go get another one today so I can spray the back 2 big side pannels and the rear window frame trim. I had them make a custom color to match and it cost me 100 bucks s quart! I painted the kick pannels with a spray can of sem landau black and it took a whole can to where it would cover and look OK. The colored paint comes out nice but takes alot to get full coverage. It helps to use a primer that's close to the color. I switched to the dupli-color adhesion promoter and it actually works really well better than the advantage. They can just goes pretty quick a lot quicker than I thought it would. I used a few cans of the Bulldog on stuff to it works as good. But yeah I want you count up all of the paint clear coat the sem paint sandpaper Scotch-Brite pads primer adhesion promoter all that stuff its way up there in price I wouldn't do it again that's for sure. I found companies that sell actual dyes that work badass and I could have just bought a big thing of black for under 100 and would have been good and they say it doesn't chip crack or peel. Look up www.autoleatherdye.com the stuff is badass. There are other companies that sell it to. You can wipe it on with a sponge it they re omend spraying it out of a gun to get a more uniform look
