reupholstering my interior soon.......

I’ve been looking for websites that show custom interior jobs, something like a photo gallery of any companies work. I have searched Google and have only came up with a few sites (stitch craft, theinteriorshop and westcoastcustoms), but have not really found anything that fits my taste.
Every time I am at the grocery store, I look at ricer mag.s, low-rider mags, truckin SUV magazines for custom interior ideas.
If you have any suggestions for URL to check out or even a large selection of cloth material, please feel free to share.

The theme i am going for is a black interior. I have black race seats, CF dash kit, I have already reupholstered the rear jump seats, the rear back pad and the front cloth area on the door (where the door release is located) with a black mesh looking material (similar towhat sport clothes are made of)







Also,

jacquard material .......

Anyone heard or know much about this material?

Here is my post on it from CT forum.

It has been mentioned that "It seems to be the new thing in auto upholstery....with a very expensive look to it."

tweed is a little too rough looking for my taste...i think i want to go with something a little more softer looking. Nice pic by the way.

I think a car with a velvet interior would be George Costanza's dream ride.

DING DING DING!! We have a winner!! Leather and leapard skin bikini it is!


Dad's doing great. I brought him home (to my house) 2 weeks ago, and he is up and around and eating well and gaining weight and starting to drive me nuts... (he's a chatterbox ) He'll be able to go home (to his house) in a week or so. He still has a long way to go to be back to normal, and he still needs some more reconstructive surgery, but he's gonna be fine. It's pretty amazing all things considered. Thanks for asking.
