1 point to you

Nice write up. rep +1

Where did you get the glue from? I used spray adhesive, useless!!....

Also where you get your fabric?

just use contact adhesive fatboyz, let it get tacky before you apply the material so it won't soak through

if you get the glue on your hands though don't count on it coming off for a few days unless you got some acetone handy(which i luckily did, metho and turps have no effect nor does steaming hot water)

actually i got about half a can left over if you want it let me know
you can get microsuede from spotlight, no idea if you can get red though(i got black)

tweed fabric i find looks pretty close to the ctr trim. thats wat i used for mine ages ago.

i used max bond, you can get it basically anywhere hardware shop, even woolies, big w etc.. it was really thick so it didnt get soaked into the fabric, just spread it out with a piece of cardboard or sumthing to prevent lumps.
spotlight, lincraft and most fabric stores had other colour suede except red.
i got mine from a fabric shop in cabbra.
$20 a metre i think it was.

hahaha i do!
I CANNOT find where the hell yoi buy material, even went to a few trimming places, and they don't seem to just sell material...

I took my passenger door trim off like 3 months ago to do it, and still havent. Everyone complains about there being nothing to lean on...



and i thought they were plastic welds, not rivets ?
