haha a ton of time on your hands.... honestly if you have the moeny to take it to pros to do it i would bc ive had to do it three times bc every time it starts to droop so im hoping this time it stays

but if you really wanna do it all i did was take it out of my truck peel the vinyl off then got some heavy duty glue and a glue gun and sprayed both of them and let them sit for a sec then started to put it on but its a pain to get all the bumps and air bubbles out lol so good luck if you do decide to do it yourself

Looks great dude, you gotta do the seats now! Any plans to do them?

I want to do my seats, headliner, a-pillars, steering wheel and maybe console shifter eventually. I love the suede look!

Head liner looks good! but the arm rests look kinda messy. Not trying to be an a$$, but I think if you would have pulled and stretched and went slow they would have come out clean and not all bunched at the end. (I have done this stuff a lot on cars and custom sub boxes)
