Default Interior Service: Suede Headliners / Pillars / Trims

Hey guys,

If anyone is interested my friend and I are starting a small service to offer to local members in the area. We have done 5-6 suede interiors now and are offering it to any cars in the area. We can also do custom fabrics like Bride or any other soft fabrics (costs varies on this)

Pricing already includes material costs - Custom fabric pricing differs, please contact me for details.

Suede Material comes in: Red / Dark Red / Blue / Dark Blue / Black / Caramel / White. If you need a different color let us know.

Suede Headliners - 350z - $300 / G35 - $350
Suede Pillars - $100
Black Painted Trims (all piece) (visors, cabin lights, etc) - $100

Samples

350z - sorry I only got 2 pics of this (these are samples I found, the suede we use is darker)





Evo 7/8/9 (this one is of my car) - You can see the black interior trims painted to match the black suede.

Thanks bro I think the black interior makes the cabin feels pretty nice. We can also do this in Bride material for the JDM crazies who can afford Bride seats it will match them nicely

Haha yeah I was writing someone's name there but you can't really see it. We use automotive grade adhesive. Some people use store bought stuff that seems to give over time so we just got the pro-grade stuff to ensure that it won't peel in extreme heat or cold conditions.

lol climbing sounds like fun right now...actually any in door sports, I gotta find an indoor bball court around here somewhere! The plastic holds up very well. I haven't had any issues with it and the first car we did 3 months ago still has no problem. Unless you're purposely running your nails into it and trying to scrape the plastic it will hold up very well. We use a heat lamp to cure the paint as well.

The beauty of suede is that you can always move your hand up and down the material to clear it up

Great work Alvin! Looks real great!

Would you guys do seats too? Suede in the middle portion of the stock seats would be sick, kind of like the rear seats in your evo.
