Thumbs down Before you "try something new"...

So, as some of you know, I am selling my Cobalt. Just wanted to give you a look at the monstrosity I modded it to and what I changed it to in order to be able to sell it lol I decided to try to wrap the dash in suede and carbon fiber. Bad idea when I'm not profficient at either! Without further adue:
Before

And with the better judgement, voila:

So when you really want to mod your interior, remember my experience... and don't fall prey to "trying something new" lol

I dont agree... can't be afraid to fail.. and NOT try something new. That's just how you learn.. get as much info before you start and make sure you have what you need and perhaps try on something that's ok to mess up on and then go for it!

A pillars were a little sloppy before as there were a couple wrinkles, that's why I cut around like that. Now it matches the contours of the pressure guage on both sides and looks much more clean. The headliner is still suede. I definitely kept that as it turned out really well and still looks nice.

I like that you tried something new. I wouldn't try this because I'm to impatient
