At long last, I've received and installed my new seat covers and door panels compliments of Mr. Mikes. The attention to detail and high quality work left me blown away. I cannot stress how pleased I am with the results. It took about 6-8 hours to recover the seats and install the door panels. I couldn't be happier.

Here's some eye candy.

 

Those look great! Love the smell of the new leather.

 

Very nice. Blends well together. Great color choice, too. And hey, manual windows?

.

 

how much did you have to give for all that work.

 

The interior set me back enough but its well worth it. Mrmikes.com he's a nice guy and can shoot you a quote.

Nothing wrong with manual windows. One less thing to break.

 

looks great

 

looks great! Looks like you'll be needing some fresh carpet now.....it never ends...

 

Looks really good man! I was talking to you over on Mifbody about the interior. I'm thinking of going with the classic industries or hawks covers.

 

sad but true - i powerwashed it before the cold came.. looks like it didn't help as much as I had hoped. i might be invested in some carpet and giving the floor the same fatmat treatment i did to the doors.

thanks for the compliments. love your car.

 

Thanks! I was hoping to make it to some last season shows, but the UPS man just didn't arrive in time. Oh well, i'll make it to the meet & greet in the spring and hopefully turn some heads and burn some tires.

 

I got a set of seat track covers when your ready to do the carpet.

If you can find a used set of clean oe carpet I would recommend it. I used the ACC carpet in my 91, and just was not as happy with feel, and color comparo to original. I bought a wrecked 91 for the carpet in the 92 and man does it clean easier and fit is better. After getting the used carpet out I even thought about swapping my acc carpet to the convertible... a thought

 

I've put aftermarket carpet into my old trans am and it fit like poo. I have the seat track covers, just didn't put them in. They need a little TLC yet.

To be honest, i was hoping the carpet's condition wouldn't be very noticeable but the more I see it, the more unhappy I become. My first order of business is a new steering wheel and upgraded interior lighting.

 

I hear ya, but you spent good coin to have the interior primo, and carpet might be holding you back from what can be seen in the pics.

I love steering wheel shopping what wheels you thinking about using?

 

Sounds like it'll have to happen then!

As for steering wheels, I was thinking about this one from summit but the more I look at it, the more I don't like it.

I'm pretty sure these summit wheels are just rebadged forever sharp wheels. I am leaning toward this one. Lost an ebay auction the other day

This one is pretty cool, but i don't know how I feel about the brushed finish. I'd probably paint it flat black.

I'd really rather not use a grant wheel. No offense to anybody that uses them, I just think they're overdone.

 

I'm a big fan of billet half wraps! I had a couple different B.A.D wheels through my years. I think the first style is too late 90's hot rod. I actually really like the matte black Foreversharp one you have posted in the second link. I agree with the Grant wheel statement, they are over used and I don't care for them at all. Going to AutoZone is how you customize your car, the RN stigma these cars have will never go away.

For the money I like that black one! Hope to see it on there soon.

 

Seats looks real good, seems like top notch work. Over all nice lookng car.

 

That interior looks great.

 

Thanks for the compliments and feedback!

 

I installed new carpet from 1A front and back about a year ago and it came out pretty nice. Took a little TLC but it's still a whole better than what I had in there.

 

Looks like pretty good stuff!

 

Nice!!

 

That looks awesome great job just pulled me carpet out getting ready to wire everything up and put new carpet in to.

 

Yes, you CAN do it. While you have the carpet out make sure you lay some sound deadener/insulation mat down, too.

 

Thanks for the advice I will definitely do that.

 

did the sound deadener in the floor really help?

it sounds like a lot of my interior noise is coming from the hatch area.

 

If your still thinking about your steering wheel, this should make you feel a little bit better about using the similar designs you posted. This is used Billet Specialties with similar design...

oh boy that BS wheel is pricey. I'm going to go with the black forever sharp wheel. I think i may put it on my xmas list along with the pro 5.0 shifter as nice stocking stuffers.

 

AWESOME! Nice choice of colors! Way different and cool...

 

Thanks!
