I'm also interested to know how you handled the outside bolts? Did you put nuts on the inside with them or just leave them through?

i drilled the holes for the outside bolts and yes i put the plastic nuts on to keep the spoiler down to the trunklid... without the nuts there was about a 1/4'' gap between the spoiler and trunk

about a month ago i finished up reupholstering my interior cloth/vinyl.. it was about week worth of work on my free time about 2 hours a day.. here are some pictures of my cars interior timeline haha keep in mind this was my 1st shot at reupholstering.. i just learned to use a sewing machine about 2 weeks before i started this project.. practiced every single day till i felt like i could do it.. last pictures are the end result.. so far its been holding up GREAT no wrinkles or anything everything is nice and tight.. and i love the feel of cloth seats over vinyl and or leather.. not to mention the look.. i think it looks alot better..

yeah i did them myself.. it wasnt as hard as i thought it would be.. but it is very time consuming.. i took apart the 2 front seats.. rear seat.. front door cards and the rear cards.. it took alot of time unstitching the parts i was going to replace with cloth.. and making sure i traced them out right.. then stitched cloth to the original vinyl pieces.. i doubled up the fabric in places that would be a potential problem area for wear and tear.. and double stitched those areas too.. but in the end i think all the time and work i put on it was definately worth it and im also able to say i did it myself..
