I really like the look of the full leather interior option but don't have it on my 03 coupe. Can this be added after the fact and look as good? After market options or factory, if available?

 

You can pretty much add anything if you want to spend the money. It sounds expensive.

 

yes you can add it...it looks soooo much better with the full leather.

 

I don't think it's cost effective to do this. Sure it CAN be done. It would probably be cheaper to sell your 03 and buy another one with the options you want.

yeah, leather option is the shnizit. Sounds expensive, I would sell and buy or keep and buy!

 

Nah.....its probably not THAT expensive..you need the dash and door panels....here is a dash on ebay for $450....

I would be leary of this place because they are generally more expensive and may not be the most reputable....but it can be done....maybe a few grand in parts....

 

Ah, the price .... that is and remains a real concern. Before daring to turn that corner, I wasn't sure that it would even be possible but now .... it's probably not going to be worth the effort (ie price).

sigh - just one more thing on my car that I wish were different

Thanks for the input, it's much appreciated but I don't think that I'm going to pull the trigger on it.

 

Did not have it in my 2000 had it in my 2003 big huge difference...the car w. out it looks CHEAP....

 

damnit, don't say that!

 

I would be leary as well, the pic of the dash looks like it's all scratched and torn...I guess that would explain the price.

 

I'd sell and get one with it.

 

I think the A pillars are leather as well, aren't they?

 

You could take your car to an auto upholstery guy and have the whole interior done for less than 3 grand. Or, you could take your car to Mexico and have it done down there for about a grand – and don’t joke about the Mexicans, they do great upholstery. I’ve had three cars done down there and several friends have as well and the work is top notch and CHEAP. Also, I’ve bought several parts from LA Dismantlers and was very happy with what I received. They are on the pricy side, but they’ve done right by me

 

Yes, they are....

 

I'd keep my car if I was SURE about the history and condition.....the new full leather car, may be an unknown....
