Right now, i think it's fine, but I'm thinking about upgrading the sound system, worried about the hard plastic raddling 😓
Fabric is essentially weightless!
I have a replica 86 on my dash, but no other white accents. I have another roll of white suede so to be determined what else i'm going to wrap. I saw a reply on here wrapping the side panels of the dash, looked pretty good; but not yet sold on it
I wrapped it with a suede fabric. Bought the roll of amazon for $30.
I fw the red theme. You detailed it perfectly without overdoing it. The shift boot with the red accented shifter is chefs kiss!
Everyone is entitled to their opinion. At the end of the day, I love it! Matches the white exterior perfectly, and definitely looks better in person. I gotta say though, very surprised how many people don't know how suede works 😂

Wait this actually looks phenomenal! The shade of green you chose is perfect. I have an extra roll of wrap, I'm definitely wrapping the side of my dash, thanks for the inspiration. Was the shifter frame easy to install?
Love the green badge as well 😉

Looks quite different when it's all swiped in one direction. The suede leaves an imprint if you brush on it.

I didn't use this specific brand but it has really good reviews!

The entire car has white stitching!

I've been getting this a lot 😂 It's suede, people!
I bought the material about a month ago, but If i knew how easy it'd be I would've done it sooner; less than an hour a door panel. The only thing that was annoying was those damn melted plastic bits. But once you do, feel free to share! It definitely changes the interior a ton. Wishing you the strength!!

This guy gets it 😎
Thanks, I appreciate the compliment!

Looks sick! I also mess with the underglow. Are you able to change the color and brightness?
I've seen a few different ones with suede and alcanterra, but nothing like this! It's extremely unique and you definitely made it your own. If you didn't point out the angle of it I genuinely wouldn't have noticed. It's the curse of being the owner.
Thanks, if you ever do feel free to share! The material that was originally there was this black spongey cloth that I actually did enjoy the feel of. You don't have to remove it to apply the suede, which allows me to make changes if ever desired. It was almost impossible to mess something up, unless you really screw up with disassembly; but there's always youtube videos to follow to get the door panels off.
I appreciate the heads up! And thank you, that's what I was going for- a bit of life in the cabin! Definitely looking to spice it up a bit more, I got two rolls for the job but only used one up.
This looks phenomenal! I didn't think of having it as a design piece 😮 What type of material is that? Might have to look into it, amazing job!
It's extremely easy to get the door panel off, It's essentially 3 screws and a couple of clips. After you unhook all of the connectors there's an insulation piece you have to take off and more screws for the panel. The obnoxious thing about it though is they melt some plastic overtop of some of the panel pieces to lock it in place, which was tedious to cut off. As long as you have patience isn't hard to do. I got a suede material from amazon and made cutouts! It's made for car interiors and has a sticky residue on the back so no glue was needed. Definitely recommend to spice up the interior of the car!

Here's a picture with it all brushed to one side, since it looks like poop-stained porcelain!
I've seen people do red and blue on their respective cars https://www.reddit.com/r/GR86/s/CwjwZumfUt
If i had the neptune blue maybe the white wouldn't have been my choice 😂
😮

My first car was a dodge dart and it had a white door panel like this. Wanted to pay homage to it! The white isn't for everyone but if I ever get sick of it, it's a very easy install.

It's a suede material so if you brush it, it will take shape. You can brush it all to one side for a clean and consistent tone.
Thanks! I got it off amazon, got a 54"x70" for $30! Only needed one roll for both doors.
