Finished up the interior on the Eggplant this weekend. This was a color change
from Ivory to Pigskin.

Very Nice!! Where did you buy the interior, and did you install it yourself?

Hi Keven, I bought the peices from Re-Originals. I took it apart then had a
local shop recover the seats, the rear panel and make up the pieces for the
wheel wells. I then put it together, pretty easy and straight forward.

Kjell,

Did you buy seat covers from Re-originals, or just the
material and have a shop sew up the covers?

Thanks
Keven

Wheel Well Covers

Kjell and others,

I will be installing my locally-made wheel well covers as well. Currently the foam and vinyl are separate and I'm wondering what the best process is to attaching it to the vinyl to avoid any bunching up etc.. (or if it really matters)
1. Attach vinyl to foam with spray adhesive. Let dry. Stick vinyl/foam to wheel well using same adhesive.
2. Stick foam to wheel well using spray adhesive. Stick vinyl to foam using spray adhesive.

Any thoughts and other tips?

Thanks,
Phil Gigante
