Yeah my only experience with this upholstery game has been with leather, I have yet to toil with clothe, as I was thinking about it while I was driving my Z today, it looks like the entire materials gotta come off the seat.. wow.. it'll be a job to do, thats if I actually do it.

Yeah no thanks. Unless I could get the AC/heater combo seats, I'd never do it. That said, I really wish I did have leather heated seats right about now. Come July, probably not so much.

Dude, I love it, I absolutely love it.

dmhenderson · 02-10-2013, 07:59 PM

Those ventilated leather AC seats are the bomb. I think my friend has them in his G37 but I'm not 100% on that.

dmhenderson · 02-10-2013, 08:02 PM

I want a sunroof. Who was the guy here who got one?

jpit.

The trouble with the sunroof is it KILLS the shape of the roof. The Z has a real nice roof spine that gets flattened with the sunroof and looks like ***.

Yeah, I agree with that, its not a flat roof, which kinda fvcks everything up.

i remember feeling kinda the same way but I think I need to see it again to reassure myself.

eastwest2300 · 02-10-2013, 08:07 PM

hmmmmmm

eastwest2300 · 02-10-2013, 08:08 PM

That material must be made to flex, I would just think its easier doing it in sections but then again, I've never really looked at doing this project so I'd have to look at the inside and give it some thought.

eastwest2300 · 02-10-2013, 08:09 PM

Yeah its definitely NOT flat.

m4a1mustang · 02-10-2013, 08:10 PM

And of course its the type that opens to the outside so it looks like the car has its hat on backwards

dmhenderson · 02-10-2013, 08:10 PM

(it really sounds like it'd be awesome during every season except right now)

dmhenderson · 02-10-2013, 08:11 PM

**** I really wish that looked better. It really does look pretty terrible. Don't think I'm going to offend anyone because I'm pretty sure he sold that car.
