Oh really? Cool! Take a photo and post it on here so people can see what it looks like. I thought it was a nice touch to leave a little bit of aluminum, since the shifter, paddles, and door handles were all aluminum.

Thanks man! The vinyl is way better quality than the fabric. I know 3 people in STL that have the fabric, and it eventually starts to peel around the edges. The fabric is easier to damage and doesn't "wear" very well. The vinyl is extremely durable. It almost seems like it will be hard to work with at first, because it is really thick, but it isn't bad at all, especially when a little bit of heat is applied. The Di-Noc stuff is known to be almost permanent, so don't put it on anything that you eventually want to take it off of.
