Default Suede Interior

I have a 2000 Mustang Gt. Our interiors have always been......lacking, that being said, i have seen some very TASTFUL things that could be done to interiors in general. I recently purchased some Corbeau Forza seats in suede. I have since fallen i love with the fabric. My plan is as follows:

Suede the headliner
TOP portion of the dash
Shift boot
e brake boot

I have already purchased some faux sued that matches the seats very well. I purchased about 60ft x 6.5ft for about 45.00. I ordered about 20 samples from various places until i found a good match.

Can i get any opinions on this. Good? Bad? Rice? Im gonna do it in time but this forum is called General DISCUSSION so.....lets discuss.

i'd suede the middle portion of the seats so you have the 2 tone look (both leather & suede). I'd agree with you and do the shift boot and e brake boot. I'd leave it at that, But thats just me.

It was a place called Frabric.com lol, pretty basic. I want to do silver stitching to match my exterior paint color.
