So Im taking out the blue interior with leather (YUK) and redoing it black w/ pink accents and replacing the leather with microfiber. Im putting rx8 seats in it too.
Got the doors done so far :o)

Welcome to the boards! The FC is most certainly a girls car, but since you are a girl, it's very appropriate! It looks to be in great condition from the pics! Get some suspension upgrades, and some wheels and it will look SICK!

PS: microfiber door panel inserts? I want to do that to my car. Is that the same as alcantara or is it different? How much is a roll of it? Do you use that fabric adhesive to attach it? Do you need foam padding under it as well? My inerior is pretty shot up, so I need to re-do most of it.

Yes, its pretty much the same as alcantara from what I can tell. Its around $25.00 a yard, I bought 1 yard and still have plenty left over.. I should have used adhesive but I did staples instead. I left the original foam padding the door already had on it... I wanted the doors to look similar to the doors in my 8 and I think they look WAY better that they did before. I wish I had taken a before picture.
