i know all about lmc

but right now im just looking for the material so i can do it myself.. not really looking to have a place do it for me.. or premade replacements

im looking for the cheapest way out.. and sadly.. my needle work is pretty damn good :P

im looking forward to re-doing the entire interior myself

I've been wanting to do this for a while too. All I've really been able to find as far as DIY stuff is CatSkinz, and they only deal in leather.....and I hate leather


...I can't even find their site anymore.
