    New Blue Interior

    Thanks to everyone for the advice in this thread:



    Basically, I had blue interior in my 4-door and was looking for something a little different. It was just a little too blue for me. Here are the before pics:



    And here's how it looks now. Still blue, but changed the map pockets/door pulls and put in different seats. I think it looks tons better, and is so much more fun to be in now:

        Maybe it has to do with the over-exposed pics, but that looks horrible imo

            It's Royal Blue Metallic. It has an almost purple look to it sometimes, but is usually a dark-blue. The light really plays off it.

                Leatherique is next for sure. Honestly, the color is so close in person, it's hardly noticeable. And although it's like 100 degrees right now, having heated seats will be so worth it later on...even if they aren't a [I]perfect[I] match. Here's a couple more pics I took today without the flash:

                  Looks great. Now you just need a set of black floormats.

                      Indigo leathers rock! I thought about doin my pockets black too. Not too bad looking but I might stay with blue.

                      A quick pic of my vert in project progress.

                        Keep an eye out for blue houndstooth seats/fabric.

                          Nice upgrade. Once you do the leatherique you'll be golden.

                              Leatherique is a 3 day major PITA job of completely refinishing your leather.

                              A kit is about $150, IIRC.

                              I bought some "leather dye" and resprayed my seats and 3 years later, they still look great.

                              (no, not the cloth/leather, the stock sports in the other car)

                              Seems like it is from Select Products or some shit like that? Works great..wipe with acetone, light sand (800/1500 grit) wipe again and spray...bueno!
