      Man, lipstick red? How do you think the color will hold up?

      I think it'll look great. A real headturner at the least.

        It should hold up for several years or more, depending on how much it sits out in direct sunlight. If it does fade, it is easy to remove the panels and redye them.

          From my experience, the Duplicolor is not as durable as I would like it to be...but so far the panels look good!

                Wow that's really red, but maybe it will look better when it's in the car and not under direct sunlight =)

                  Old panels removed and new red panels installed.







                  Carpet shipped today from California.
                  Stay tuned for future developments.

                    I thought the carpet shipped today. Actually, it arrived today and Sukajammy has already claimed her spot. Carpet will go in tomorrow. Still waiting on seats from upholstery shop.



                    Stay tuned for late breaking developments.

                                Carpet came from World Upholstery. Started installing today. Trimming and fitting is required. I'll take more photos tomorrow.
