Hi all,

I've just got some VTR seats but I want to go down a camo route and have it on the central area of the seats, the roof lining and as my carpet.

How hard to you think it would be to do? This is because my girlfriend is thinking of starting a business doing car interiors and mine will be a bit of a trial and error session.

Has anyone got any tips for doing this?

Thanks!

Seats would be a right pain I reckon! Roof liner sounds a good idea in particular, but I dunno if the carpet would be too much, especially is it's quite a vivid camo. Would be a nice personal touch when done though! As for tips mate I'm no help, but thats my 2p's worth!

Silly question can your gf sew . Don't buy a crap machine and not a house hold one . To do good seats you need a walking foot machine also don't mean to sound funny but your gf needs to be good with spanners I.e to take seats apart . Also use good thread if not it will come way so easy I've trim cars for years but came out the trade but will never sell my machine as I do my own cars
