I will be taking before and after pic's of the interior. From past experience doing a similar interior in my yellow car I have estimated the total to be 22-2,500$ for this car. The work is going to be done by me and my friend who owns Johnny's Custom Auto and who ever I decide to have do the seats. I repaired or replaced and painted all the plastic interior parts. I made the new door panels and hatch area panel along with the custom inside of the hatch panel. Johnny is going to do the remainder of the disassembly and I will finish up the parts and he will do the assembly as I am not able to any more. The materials to make the custom panel inside of the hatch came to around 135$ with 80$ of that going for the buttons. The seats are going to be a major part of my estimate. I haven't gotten one from either of the 2 people yet. Money for the first time in my life is not a problem with this project but I still want the best bang for the buck I can get. Coordinating all the work and meeting my May 1'st completion date is. "Doc" ------------------------ Yahoo!
