Who said rattle cans wer sh!te

[mrt4x4]

Bin hard at work this week in me garage lol.

Basically i stripped the car completely inside a few months ago as it was broke into, and audio was stolen etc, so i ripped everything out so no1 wud break in agen.

ive been meaning to do this for aaaages, 1st idea was to leather the whole interior so i went and bought loads of leather, stupid boy this idea didnt work, all the curves etc it was impossible for me.

so in the end i went with paint and leather inserts, pics follow of primed panel finished look and the white speaker cover

whole interior will be like this, with sum uprites and other bits in the leather, and hopefully rooflining will be leather too, let me know wat u think, not too bad for rattle cans

What colour were they to start off as? :S

Going to flake pretty soon with alittle bit of wear unless you sanded and primered it very well dude.

Best of luck with the rest of the interior.

They are shite. The finish may be ok, but will always be better done professionally. Of course then you have to weight up cost vs desired finish.

imo, if you're going to do a job, do it properly. That rationale stands for everything in life.

There's also the viewpoint of giving it a try and learning from your mistakes.

[JonniP]

[theduck]

Which, if any, of those bits are 'finished'? :S

Agree'd. Although some people will never learn.

I do bits and bobs to mine, like detailing, i know there are 1001 people who could do a better job @ cost, however i do a sufficient job...thats my arguement basically.

 

[Gally]

Has it started flaking off yet?

 

[Christopher]

Hmm.

 

[mrt4x4]

[Curtis!]

What are you going to do with the front doorcards dude? Cut the inserts out?

 

[theduck]

mrt4x4 what I was asking was which of those photographs are meant to be of finished items, they are all different colours and the quality of finish looks patchy/rough on all of them.

 

[Camble]

It'll be like dandruff in no time

 

[mrt4x4]

its matt, just be the light on bits n shadows mate

front door cards the same just prize them out agen with plyers a lil hammaaay (hammer), dandruff lol wont

 

[dajones]

so you completly stripped your interior so nobody would break into it again :S
cant see it looking good mate, i think the paint would start to peal in a few weeks

 

[mrt4x4]
