I think it looks good if it matches the theme your going with.

I've seen his cover and door panel inserts in suede and red stitching. Looks awesome.

what the heck does that mean. so it looks good and cheesy?

but i think it does look kinda home made, just grab some cloth at a fabric store and do it your self, unless you want the type-R red stiches

I bought one from him. It wasn't to bad by the vinyl wasn't the nicest. Also the stitches didn't match up that great with the curves of the arm rests.

So I just decided to use some alcantara so that it would match my ITR seats almost perfectly. I still have some of the fabric left. Let me know if you want any.

There are plenty of nice upholstry shops in philly around you. Hit me up on AIM, I have some pretty good connections with a few of them. My car needs an interior done pretty soon so I'll be on the same page as you. I might go with the bride theme.... I like that alot Damn good, damn good!

Some people actually just order the fabric ripped off the itr armrest because I hear its different. I have no experience with it.

But you can always rip the leather off and just re cover your armrest with it.
