Talking Revised interior pics!

Well im finally almost 100% completed with my interior. I had the totally ugly burgandy interior that had to go and I replaced it with a full black interior with leather door panels, new Sparco seats and a freshly custom built 6pt roll bar/cage. These pics dont do the real thing justice, im really pleased how it came out, what do ya think?

You have one of the cleanest 7's I've seen. I love your car! Make a video of your car sometime, at the track, sleeping, whatever.

Did you replace everything, or did you die some of the stuff black?

Well it was a pain in the *** to install the seats. I used the stock sliders. I had to drill new holes on the stock sliders. When you do that the sliders become closer together than stock so then I had to drill new holes on the floor. It seemed to work out nicely.

They feel great to say the least. Very supportive but not recommended for the fat guys.

By saying that I have one of the nicest in North America is probally going a little far, but thanks! I will NOT be putting on one of those Rotary Extreme front ends. This weekend I will be modifing a S5 front end. I'll show pics when its all done, hopefully by the middle of the week.

I swapped out my interior from Blue to Black. I'm sure the Inside of your car feels totally different now.
