They need to go to the auto trimmers to get the centre sections colour matched to the car. All black is IMO a bit plain.

Nice seats, but yeah i agree with Cosmo with rear needs a re-trimmer unless your budget is tight

This was basically a once off that the car actually got some love, and retrimming the seats is wayy outside the budget haha
I have left them as dark grey, and now that they are in the car as of 30mins ago, it does somewhat look ok Ended up buying another can and doing the door cards too, so will throw up a day time photo in the morning

Not really an update, but....
I have acquired a door courtesy of Hammo's donor car What does this mean? after 5 years, the car will get a makeover of some sort, plus a couple other additions, but still a long while away yet... stay tuned

SO the other night I wanted to learn some new photoshop techniques, and muster up how I want the car to look by the end of the year... Colour has been dwindled down to two option, Phantom Blue Mica (mazda colour found of the BK2 3 & RX8) or Chlorophyll on the Holden Cruze & VE2 Commdore.. Anyways, using Hammo's car as a reference, with the greeny blue colour & different wheels....
Veloster Turbo 18" Mazdaspeed MS-01LM 16" Work Emotion XD9 18" Apart from colour change, body work & wheel swap, nothing else will change...

For a little while now I have been on the search for a new set of wheels, something a little wider and light, so I decided to stay with what I have got.So on the weekend I plastidipped the Enkei's...
And did 1 coat of plasti-dips copper metalizer for that dark bronze look after this I unbagged the brakes, peeled off the excess dip from the tyre wall and gave the car its first bath in over 6mths So all up I used 3 cans of the dupli-color black & quarter can of the copper metalizer, total cost was $85
