It's costing a bit... hoping to offset the cost by selling off the beige/wood stuff, but I imagine it will take a LOT of time, judging by the 'completed sale' info on eBay. Luckily, my car came with a real GT2 tail I did not want - selling that is offsetting the changeover.

I understand your viewpoint but you should hang on to the tail= belongs with the car. The black interior will look great with yellow!

That beige leather with the wood would look great with right exterior color. Yellow is not that color. Good move going to black.

You should be able to sell the beige and wood for good $$$$.

It was a good day. Many many thanks to Mike Schatz for a stellar job de-beiging.

Looks great, are those new seats, or just recovered?
