i'm not crazy about the suede, but i think a leather dash and maybe center console would look really nice. I just started thinkin about this a few days ago, but I've never really dealt with interior stuff much. How much would something like that cost?

How much would it be to get the dash and doors wrapped in leather. Not in including materials.

you guys who think its gay are funny.
because i dont think this is gay, and cars
that do track time actually do it to the whole
dash, like this lambo gellardo superleggera,
and benefit from it because it reduces glare.
just my 2 cents.
i think its pretty cool
