Calibra Leather into a Nova - It can be Done!! Pics..

[SRimon]

Well as some of you know i have been missioning it to get full calibra leather in my nova, i've seen a few with front leather but never the rear leather....dunno if im the first???

But its great, fits in snugly, and makes the nova feel a lot bigger than it is..

lol my stepdad used shoe polish on the seats of his scorpio, ended up all over his clothes. nobber!! :lol:
Did u fit the rear seat in ok?? i didnt think it could be done, thought it had to be re trimmed onto a nova rear bench??

[Riggy]

i dont like them :o , looks like you have done a decent job of it and well done to you for doing it but i just dont think it looks as good as say a sri/gsi interior or one that has been properly re-trimmed


sorry :(

sorry :(

Fair comment, but the difference being, i bought the leather for cheaper than i could buy a normal gsi interior let alone a re-trimmed one! It was the only reason really :D

[TWAG]

Very nice mate!

I know id prefer to do that than pay over a grand to get a company to retrim it.

[SRimon]

Too Right!!

i've spent ?2k on this car already :o

[m.d.]

does look well good. when i welded the sub frames for simon and we fited them i just wanted them there and then.

picking up that GTE engine on friday if you want it mate 8)
