Arosaproject Posted July 25, 2012 Report Share Posted July 25, 2012 (edited) Like to carbon backs on the seats chap, i was going to something like that but now i have an alpine set up (check my thread) things are going to be different.Bra's haven't been my thing (as they never seem to sit tight) but it looks good.You leaving your liner standard then?Good work all in all Edited July 25, 2012 by Arosaproject Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sp3nny Posted July 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2012 cheers bud, well happy with how the backing came out, time well spent. going to leave the headliner standard for now but hoping to do it in a similar blue leather as the seats in the futuree Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete91 Posted July 25, 2012 Report Share Posted July 25, 2012 (edited) Doing your liner in the same blue as the seats would look quality! Edited July 25, 2012 by Pete91 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rapidebrothers Posted July 25, 2012 Report Share Posted July 25, 2012 Nice improvements there mate! Liking the carbon on the rear of the seats - good work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sp3nny Posted July 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2012 cheers bud. they look like just squares but there's actually lots of little indents and that, so making the template took quite a while, wrapping it in carbon only took 10 mins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiiTCH-TDi Posted July 26, 2012 Report Share Posted July 26, 2012 That's the wrong bra that's a badgeless one you need a badged one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete91 Posted July 26, 2012 Report Share Posted July 26, 2012 There's wee things at either side of the bay that can be tightened up a bit to allow more space. Then go mad and proper slam it shut. It took me about half an hour of attempting to shut it to finally get the balls to slam it hard enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver! Posted August 11, 2012 Report Share Posted August 11, 2012 Glad you enjoyed Scotland! There's definately an art to camping in a Lupo. At least you never had a 35k dog with you too.What's happening to the Bathursts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sp3nny Posted August 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2012 ah ye thanks Ray, its a nice place! i had to plan every little piece that went into the car, then my poor little sister got stuffed in the back surrounded by rucksacks and sleeping bags and i'll let you wait and see with the Bathursts, they won't be everyones cup of tea but they will definately be different!
