ctr look-a-like panels $5

red96civicex · 12-01-2008, 07:45 PM

yup was bored today and decided ill try it out and figured it would go nice along with the red ctr carpet and red del sol seats...and im really happy with the results...went to a local fabric store and got a yard for a little under $2, then i went to home depot and got 3 bags of screws for $.98 cents each!!

i hope this inspires someone to go do them...theyre not as hard as they seem!!! i still have some trimming to do on the inside, but thats not too important.

not sure why....but the picture makes it look like they are really bright lol...they are a bit brighter than the shade of the carpet, but i am going back for round 2, i think im gonna go with a darker suede..

EDIT!!!!!!
a few days after i installed the inserts above^^ i hated how they looked, therefore i was going to do them again. this time, i bought suede, and spray adhesive. cost me about $25 but it came out soooo much better. here is the pic of "round 2 diy ctr panels"

can never have too much red!!!!

its reallly easy man...all you gotta do is get a sharp knife and cut off the part of each little circle thing that holds the insert in...know what i mean?
