My MTech II Vert Saga

[Schnitzer318is]

The front corners on that bench look sloppy. Think it is the sewing or the install? More foam?

I was thinking the same thing... but was holding comment until the whole interior was in. They have very reasonable pricing and @ $750 I could see a few less than perfect areas here and there.

Keep going OP. Excited to see the whole thing together.

I was thinking it was my install at first as I am no pro, but after looking at it that seam you see on all 4 corners is actually sewn. This helps get the final hog ring in on the corner of that listing. Also the material will shrink up with some sun. All in all it won't be perfect, but alot better than what I had. Starting to work on the front seats now!

Yeah. I'm sure it's still going to look awesome. I will probably get mine done at the same place since that price is so attractive unless I can find someone local I trust.

Keep going. ;)

Another member recently installed a kit from leatherseats.com; it looked stellar.

What work I have seen from ninestitch look great really.

Pulled some more parts off of this local wrecked vert. Sadly this was a very clean car before its early demise. Same car I snagged the top off of, this time I pulled carpet and black door panels.

Excited to see all the brodeo boys again!

Been preparing the car for the bi-annual southeast BMW Rally or Brodeo ^^.

Finished up the interior, lots of work but I'm very pleased with the results. The quality of the kit is top notch which makes install easy! Thanks John at ninestich!

Working on the front seats.



Both fronts completed.



All done and installed. Probably have 15 hours all in on installing the new covers, started going quicker after I got the process down.



Also grabbed the rear coils and adjusters from my other e30 to raise the rear up then did a full wash/claybar/polish aio. Also did the headlight and independent fog mods. Put on IE RSMs as well, beefy. Just about mountain ready!









All polished up.

Very nice. How is the trunk interior on the wrecked car? I am finding those parts to be hard to come by.

[Schnitzer318is]

Very nice work. Yep, will be ordering my kit from Ninestitch as well... after my many other projects/obligations.

Awesome! I love the recovered seats. What are your plans for the door cards and rear cards? black? red? white?

Pretty sure the trunk interior was already gone.

Thanks.

I have a full set of black cards, but I'm missing the top cover in black. I'm sticking with the white for now, gives it some contrast.

You can also dye the vinyl easily with products such as SEM ColorCoat. White -> Black would be cake.

Good point, kind of digging the white panels right now though. Always good to have options.

Completed my 600 mile round trip to the SE Rally/brodeo and a wedding shower this weekend. Charlotte area->Bryson City, NC-> Deals Gap via the Dragon into Tennessee-> Columbia, SC->Finally back home. Car ran great mechanically considering its an automatic transmission. The need for a stick and more power were obvious. A swap will be the next big item on the schedule.

Here are a couple of pictures from the weekend.




Home sweet home for Friday night.

Car looks great, seats came out nicely!

That interior is great! I started to do my kit and gave up and dropped it off.


Nice progress.
