101632, Tan Interior - Black Door Panel Armrest Inserts!
Posted by teklein, Aug-15-08 02:01 AM
Hey!

Last night I pulled out the tan armrest inserts on the door panel and replaced them with these:




Daes_revenge sent me the black ones and I am sending him back the tan ones for him to use in his black interior!

I love it, I think it adds some much needed contrast, and with black seats it would killer!

Hopefully he will update this with the black/tan combo in a few days!

I know! I think they would look great.

While they were apart I also glued the leather back down on the top edges, as well as fix the interior door/window moulding, it stuck up in the back, but not anymore! You can see where that vent is all messed up :)

I was visited by the UPS guy today. I got them installed in the door panels. I feared that they wouldn't quite fit right but they actually fit real well.

I have to clean my interior before pics. It's all dusty from sitting so long. :-(

I might get around to doing that tomorrow.

LOL!

Pictures :P

I figured that they would fit fine, the black ones were exactly the same.

How were the long plstic tubes for the styrofoam?

They arrived unharmed. All of the mounts were intact. Here's a pic of the panels. I'll take a pic or 2 of them in the car later.

They are OEM black panels with OEM tan parts. No paint involved here.

OMG man! Fucking amazing!

I love the tan on the bottom. Definitely brings out a TON.

Cant see it working on the tan/black interior though, but does wonders on the black!

Your thinking right. Just imagine your interior with black carpet, black leather seats, & black door sills.

Ooooh, I like that.

Expecially the black seats and carpet.

I still have to have my seats somewhat upholstered. I'm having the center of the seats replaced with tan panels. I don't really care for the all black leather seats. Adding some tan to them will really give the interior a nice custom look.
