Actually, none of that stuff I saw is what I am looking for. The car needs a light weight interior that is functional and promotes safety in the event of a crash.
I do like the leather for fire resistance actually... It may not be fire proof, but it is a lot more so than suede or untreated cloth.
The cars I am seeing on the web and in most magazines are really well done- to a far higher level of detail than I am looking for in this case. I will go for the well trimmed race car look as opposed to the luxury hot-rodder look.

Yep, Phil's car is a race car with a Camaro skin.

Forgive me- I am not a trimmer by trade and far from an expert; can you point out some of the specific issues that separate the two trim jobs in the pictures you posted and give me some insight as to the strengths and weaknesses of both?

Thanks!

No head rest?

Thanks for the advice there.

Oh, do you happen to know the name of the shops that did the two different cars? I would sure like to know for comparison sake.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts and opinion. I will consider this when I get more serious about the design of the interior. Right now I just do not have the time to mess with it.
