Covering Inside Part of the Hood

Postby L.G. » Sat 09.08.2008, 13:31

Hi all,

Has anyone covered the inside of the hood with some sort of trim? Alcantara for example. I think it looks unfinished and ugly when the hood is up. I'll probably attempt to do this, just wanted to see if you know things that I should be careful about.

No,
but I was thinking of doing similar, I figured something with velcro fastenings so I could remove it for washing, also I figured it would need to have flexible fixings for when the roof folds down - but that is as far as I got :roll:

I keep telling myself it is for the best
