    need help/suggestions. Got the idea from this video:


    I went and measured the grey cloth areas and I am assuming it will be 1 x 2 yards per door. I will probably plasti-dip the frame around the interior door handle as well to get rid of that last piece of grey.

    When I went to Jo-Ann Fabrics, this is the color I found that matches my Green theme build the most. Now I didnt get it because I am still searching for a better shade of green. And I dont think its the correct fabric choice.

    Anyone think this nylon/spandex would work? I'm afraid it will be too elastic and reject the spray adhesive of the glue. Anyone have any suggestions or words of wisdom?

    I wont go as elaborate as these guys, but its close enough as an example of what I have seen.

    Good idea but I'd be concerned about it being a dirt magnet and nearly impossible to clean.
    Are there any auto or marine upholstery shops near you where you could get a lime green vinyl or fake suede material?
