Progress on Upholstery Project

[import_dreamz]

After thinking about all the mods I have wanted to due I have finally decided to start with the interior. The interior is the most important part of any vehicle to me because I do not want to feel as if I am driving in an everyday boring stock car. After searching through all of the material I had left from my Scion xB I discovered I still had appriximately 2.5 yards of suede left. I loved the look of the suede in the xB so why not put it in the tC.

So I planned out all of the places I want to put in the suede, went to Lion's Aumotive Upholstery, and had them make some measurement for all the suede I would need. Well it has been at least 4 weeks since then and here is the progress so far (most of the information is covered on the yoursciontc forum)

That is all of the images I have for now.  There is still plenty of progress to me made including: sueding the rest of the pillars, custom suede subwoofer enclosure, reupholstered center councel top, and suede door panels inserts.  As I have stated earlier all of the progress up to this point is covered on the yoursciontc forum.

Let me know what you all think!

Nice work! Where did you get the material?

I ordered all the suede material from Lion's Automotive Upholstery, a local upholstery shop in Omaha, Nebraska.  They order it from some company out of California as far as I know, but the material is $60 per yard and can be had in almost any color of your choice.  I ordered the leather through Katzkin, they have leather/suede kits for nearly every car out there and they are a perfect fit.
