listy Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Nope, it lines up nicely, tucked it under tight and then used staples (of all things) on the inside edge, this way I know i can take it off without issues Exactly the same way I did it Mine was a perfect fit. Had to pull it proper tight, but the fit fit is spot on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can do more variations for the same price, so long as you leave a comment when you buy dictating what you want (I spoke to the seller reference white leather bits) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j_jza80 Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 KAs some of you know I have a subtle theme with the interior, nearly all is black but with subtle bits of red, so all the dash/footwell lights are red (bar the dials which are white) etc. Based on this theme i ordered this the other day: http://mkivsupra.net/vbb/attachment.php?attachmentid=164326&stc=1&d=1360765989 http://mkivsupra.net/vbb/attachment.php?attachmentid=164327&stc=1&d=1360765989[/urlI http://mkivsupra.net/vbb/attachment.php?attachmentid=164328&stc=1&d=1360765989 The fit is very good so will be getting some arm rests done in the same way, just need to get my finger out and dye the carpet and mats black! I'm also looking at getting the seats done in the same way so black leather with red stitching, but not sure whether to move to a different set of seats like the OEM Recaro's as I want to keep my car OEM looking? that looks great, but now you'll also need the handbrake, gear knob and steering wheel doing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monsween Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 If you're wanting a stock looking seat i'd go with the Evo 5/6 recaro. Out the factory the look like really good but would be even better trimmed in the black/red Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich.2211 Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 The Recaros above a very nice! I'm going for a similar scheme as you Adam and hunting for a set of these when funds allow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're wanting a stock looking seat i'd go with the Evo 5/6 recaro. Out the factory the look like really good but would be even better trimmed in the black/red http://noonefresher.files.wordpress.com/2012/10/img_6213.jpg They do look nice, retrimmed in black leather and red stitching and I think they could fit the bill! The Recaros above a very nice! I'm going for a similar scheme as you Adam and hunting for a set of these when funds allow! http://i45.tinypic.com/ve2j4p.jpg I saw those in Steve's car and they look stunning definitely worth it and they are also what I'm looking at Edited September 1, 2013 by Littler (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
