Cool looking car man. How do you find the vinyl seat covers? My mate had the same company make some for his R33.

Thanks mate. The seat covers retrims look and feel good. I have not had any problems since i got them about a year ago.
The guy from proseat says that the material used for the retrims is reborn leather.
This is what proseat say on there ebay site.

What is Reborn Leather?
Reborn leather is a by product made from genuine leather which we import from Germany in bulk.
The excess wastage created during the leather curing process is sourced and reprocessed to produce a continuous roll of top layer material.
During the processing procedures; UV, scratch resistant and bonding agents are added therefore Reborn leather is UV resistant (no fading or cracking) which requires minimal care.
Please note Reborn leather is not 100% leather; UV, scratch and bonding agents are included in this material.
Reborn Leather is produced on a roll which is another reason for affordability as this results in less wastage of material during production.

Yeah it's pretty good stuff, it wears well and is low maintenance.

Hey everyone, does anybody have a rough idea or know how much it would cost to get the lower black parts of my car painted?
Also does anybody know how you can paint them your self?

I am all booked in to get the lower black parts of my car painted on Monday.
I will have the car back on Tuesday afternoon. It is costing $420 which i think is pretty good.

Just a quick update, but not a good one. On the weekend I was parked outside of my girlfriend's house on the side of the road and
went to get some lunch and my girlfriend discovered some f**khead had keyed my front passenger door.

Here is a picture.

Here is a picture of my attempt to touch it up.
