    Interior overhaul (E36 Content)

    Since i know most of you know this car, and are local to me, i figured id share this even tho its a E36.

    Pretty excited about this, still have some loose ends to tie up but for the most part she's done! I bought my covers from AutoBerry.com. They were for the most part pretty good. the issues that i had were pretty small. They sent me the wrong cover for the rear bench cushion. (sent me a cover for coupe, not sedan). I also purchased a full cowhide of their modena leather so i could recover the door panel inserts. So here are some before and after photos :). Dont beat me up to hard guys, and yes i know the modena is a little off, but i still think it looks great.

    Before:










    During: and i know these are not the best photos :(








    This was my gauge cluster with the faded ///M logo before and after




    After: Ill be taking more soon, just haven't really had time, and i lost the charger to my camera, but here are a few quick ones.









    Any ways thanks for taking the time to check it out! Hope you enjoyed!

    Honestly I built it just to have a place to sit and listen to Hotline Bling on repeat.

        I always enjoy builds that are performed by meticulous, detail oriented enthusiasts. Good work.

            Did you have everything rewrapped or reconditioned or what?

              As stated in the original post, I bought replacement covers from autoberry.com for the seats. Along with that I purchased a full cow hide that was dyed with the seat covers and had thoes rewrapped. My original leather now sits in a box in my garage.

                    Thanks for all the kind comments. I actually went through two shops, one was Fibernew and the other was master craft auto upholstery
