Great work man!

Looks like Yankee stadium on the inside! :rofl

How do you like #20?

Tips: I'm being uber critical, because it looks great IMO, but...

-For pics, try using an auto setting and keeping very still so no blur occurs. Also try to capture the entire vehicle in the shot...for full shots that is.
-I would continue the carpet lines throughout the interior for a more uniform look or at least have all of the carpet fibers facing the same way...Just comes off "cleaner".

Other than that, looks great. Good luck with the surgery...You definatley ended off on a good note :)
 
Thanks a lot....definately going to try the auto settings......need a steady hand..too much coffee :hot

# 20 is easy to work with.....and going with the lines throughout the interior is defianetlt going to look better....

What topper would yu use for black?

Like I said in the PM.

How'd you get the lines in the carpet? Do you have an extractor or did you use a regular shop vac?


I use a brush that i have that does nothing but lines......so that it is clean...the extractor does a great job as well...
