the dash itself is untouched but the vinyl was painted with high temp paint w/ ceramic to keep it from cracking

Did you re-paint your rear seat also or dye it?

**G-spot** · 10-06-2009, 11:27 PM

it's dyed

**IVORY_G** · 10-07-2009, 03:16 AM

What product?

**G-spot** · 10-07-2009, 09:33 AM

Any leather dye would work I got them at the arts and craft store. Basically, I had to cover my entire garage with plastic paint covers and for paint protection I bought some disposable paint overalls from the paint shop. Those dye can splash onto anywhere at any given time so you have to be extra careful not to get it on places you don't want it dyed.

I really like how your car has come along man, it looks really good with the color even.

**Ivory8g** · 10-07-2009, 11:05 AM

hmmm maybe after i am done with everything i will have a go at obtaining some leather int. panels and dying them!

So it looks like the Progress springs gave you more of a drop? I thought they had the same drop?

**G-spot** · 05-18-2010, 03:40 PM

it was definitely 1/3 inch lower than the teins

**IVORY_G** · 05-18-2010, 03:46 PM

Hmm! I've been pondering a lower stance, but didnt want to go too low. Are you on GR2's or AGX's?

**G-spot** · 05-18-2010, 03:52 PM

Agx

**beam514** · 05-18-2010, 04:12 PM

Progress springs should have about a 2" drop. If you are on stock struts, you'll really like the drop (looks wise). With AGX, I was a little disappointed, especially since I've removed some weight with the 5 speed swap.

Oh and car looks nice :)
