That's a pretty massive job. Are you seriously considering swapping carpet, dash, seats, centre console, steering wheel, roof lining, door trims and gear selector? Because you would have to do everything, otherwise it would look stupid.

umm pretty good. Dont have many lines and are shiny and soft still. Not a single mark and no wearing what so ever really. Only real problem has been rubbing underneath the seatbelt buckle.

I've got grey but I reckon cappa will look pretty bad in a gunmetal car.

Also, think of the rattles. I wouldn't even do it to my 350,000km clapper.
