Would you say that an alcantara dash, headliner and the plastic-y bits of the of the door is hard to maintain?

I know it's subjective but given that I am a careful owner but not one who would spend 10 hours detailing his car, would you say that alcantara is a "lazy"-friendly material? Or would it be better in another form of leather?

In for pics.

Ditto, I've been wanting to do something like this for a while. The dash material is the cheapest looking stuff in the car IMO.

In my opinion, the cheapest looking stuff in the car are the plastic door panel switch covers, the plastic inside door sill panels, and the plastic gauge hats. As long as you got the touring package, everything looks and feels pretty nice in my opinion.

I wrapped my interior door sill with suede and installed carbon fiber gauge hats and switch panels and that makes a BIG difference.

Ya that small stuff is fairly easily fixed. But it annoys me when I got this big round rubber dash staring at me from the passenger side. It wouldn't be as bad if the material was nicer, but it kills the interior for me.

^^^ i dunno man i think the dash itself is the least of the problems. am i crazy or does that rubber material feel a lot like whats in the audis etc? it just doesnt have any fancy metal or wood trim running through the middle to break it up... but im pretty sure the material itself is a similar feel as more expensive cars aside from those with leather or suede dash?

not to insult my 350z fellows, but at least we arent stuck with that! i couldnt stand the interior of my 350z but loved the car so of course dealt with it.

I have tint on my windshield and have done the same on last two cars and wifey's car, never a ticket!! Must be that side of town Mike!! ;)
Mike can you do baseball glove leather with stitching on the dash???

I have 55% tint on my windshield and have been pulled over twice for not displaying a license plate on the front of my vehicle. They never bring up the tint....weird.

So uh any pics? Did you get it installed yet?

I think he got smart and quit!

I did the lower dash on my bmw posted pic elsewhere on here. It would also look good on the Z the lower half of dash inc glovebox.

ya think? it's been three years and no updates since
