Looks good. What paint did you use? I would be afraid the red would come through after time.

Exactly. I would have gone with clazzio seat covers. Tony has a set and they look OEM. Nice to know this option is out thwre. Makes it look more custom.

Sem paint is good but how durable is it with scratches because wheni did the same thing on a 97 civic it didnt last long. I think the secret for durability is the prep though because that was my mistake.

Looks awesome! I've been thinking of going with some Clazzio seat covers because i can't find any black/red ap1 seats for my interior swap. It's the last thing i need. This looks like a possible option, what was the price on the paint if you don't mind me asking.

i think i spent around 200 for all the spray cans and paint, with paint still left over, your gonna need surecoat with crosslinker which can be sprayed through pressure gun or paint gun, or sem classic coat for more convential colors , they come in spray cans, for vinyal sem classic coat, and the key to to get prep products very important, for plastic sem xxx adhesion promoter before you spray on plactic and vinyal, and leather and vinyal prep for leather and vinyal prep.....you can go the the sem website and theres alot of info there, hit me up with any questions...gonna try to do a write up soon
