Custom Red/Black 86 T/A Interior

I finished the interior with some of my own ideas. Hope you all like it!

Re: Custom Red/Black 86 T/A Interior

i think it looks great. i would pay attention now to the center console and stearing wheel. i found out the problem with get new stuff/paint it makes everything else look bad. so i ended up spending more money than i had planned. i like the 2 colors. do you have any exterior pics?

Re: Custom Red/Black 86 T/A Interior

Thanks for the comments. A lot of work went into this, the seats are sewn together and not 'seat covers'. The center console was a repaired unit I found and worked on from the junk yard. I would never pay what the restoration companies want for one. Plus, mine looks good also. I do need a new steering wheel or get mine recovered. I don't have any pics of the whole car with the new interior, it was to cold the day I picked it up.

Once again, thanks for the comments.

Re: Custom Red/Black 86 T/A Interior

might i suggest soaking your console in high gloss armour all? i did my interior pieces and they look better than new. nice cheap thing to do.

Re: Custom Red/Black 86 T/A Interior

Looks great to me.

If you could have found some pallex cloth they'd pass for original (except for the embroidery). I wish more people would put time into their 3rd gen seats instead of switching to 4th gens.
