Leather: Paid to have a professional High end leather shop do it. They specialize in Ferrari and Porche Restroration. You think it looks good on your screen...It looks 100X better in person.

Carbon Fiber: Lots of practice It is very messy and takes some finesse. I think it is like painting not just anyone can do it. It is also expensive to do and very...Time consuming. It is easy to screw up I had wasted lots of materials.

I saw a brushed aluminum kit for $150 and thought that would look better then the current brown color of the plastic. (balck interior)

50 bucks via Paypal takes it.
