Mate you done a cracking job there, suede race style steering wheel to finish it off now!!!

How easy was it to do the door cards?? Ive got to do my door cards black to go with the rest of my interior. and im sure you said that you do this for living?? how much would someone/yourself roughly charge to do a set of door cards in black alcantara!!

matey
door cards are a fairly eay job but,time consuming.take your door cards off.at the back you can see plastic white blobs that hold all 3 parts together.just grind or cut the tops off and they will come apart.with alcantara you can just spray adhesive it in place.then buy some small short self taps and small washers and drill in the middle of the heads you have ground off.dont do this for a living im affraid just for myself but,have some good mates who can do it for you
