Most aren't done right, but they look ok when they are. But why change such a good looking car? People love my interior and so do I. Z toyz has an ok kit, but they jack their customers like crazy.

I agree with Emo...I haven't seen one yet that looks right, so I'm interested to see how yours turns out.

Sounds cool. That's a more conservative job. I like that idea, but it looks so gaudy when people put in yellow or something like that.

i know i have a friend whose gsr we repainted yellow, and he made me pull all of his interior out and repaint it yellow. i thought it was stupid, but he wanted the interior white originaly, so yellow was the best i could do to talk him out of it. i am just getting sick of seeing his car around town. needless to say all those rice burner chicks love it and want me to do the same

What's with the signature? "Trying is the 1st step towards failure." Failure's not an option. Just obey what Yoda said, "Do or do not. There is no try."

I would warn everybody who wants to buy from Ztoyz, Steve the guy who is running this one-man-business has had huge personal problems and most people who ordered got robbed for their money.

I ordered trim and leather seats myself for about $1k, even after 6 months of waiting I was still getting excuses why he couldn't deliver, he even sent me made up tracking numbers until he would finally ignore all my emails. Phone calls were generally not answered.

To make the story short....I had to get a lawyer who recovered 2/3 of the money.

Stay away from Ztoyz, there's many stories to read about on twinturbo.net !!!
If you want good customer svc and prompt delivery get with http://www.importsextreme.com

Another option is to order the cheap kit from eBay and use the pre-cut vinyl peices as templates to cut out the fabric of your choice.

That's what I plan to do when I have my tweed converted to suede. Buy 3-4 yards and cut them out using that cheapo eBay kit and have a GREAT product for a minimal amount of money.
