Id actually be interested in something less fancy/pricey for my VBP, so I too am interested to see who the folks who did the work are (and where).
Have you heard of the quote..."those who can.. will do"
As far as the sun fading the seats pink i have the honda fit dealer car cover to keep that from happening.
Maybe i will take them out and replace them with my sparco seats.

I have one important question. How did you manage to fix the side airbag problem? Did you install a resistor in there so that the system thinks theres still an airbag installed?

Hehe I know the quote well but it also goes with the quote "just because you can, doesn't mean you should".

But anyway not to get off base just in case some peeps read my post wrong, it was not meant as a burn, just my two cents. Heck I actually liked the interior, just not something id personally do specially at that price, and for my Fit.

Yeah Ill be there on the 11th to check out other cars. In all honesty I am looking, but in no hurry, to see about getting my seats done in leather. Nothing fancy, just redone. The stock seats attract dog hair like magnets and its a pain to vaccum. Thats pretty much all i need and would be looking for input on who can do it, where, how much, etc etc..damn dogs lol

Nice work! I'm a big fan of the Type-R interior, so it looks great to me. I've considered going a similar route, but with black/red. Where'd you get the work done at?

Hopefully I'll see it in person sometime next year.

Not trying to grab on your nuts or anything but DAMN thats killer. Keep it up bro.
