Just wondering (since you have some insight into interiors I suspect) what it would cost, roughly, to have an interior redone in this fashion? Yours looks great.

Thanks,

seats are the original I bought a kit to recolor them and the panels. the under dash scuff I recovered along with the A< B< and C pillars, also used a slightly thicker padding. rear shelf, and carpet were in great condition as were the floor mats. vacuumed them and shampooed them, then vacuumed again. rear shelf and floor mats was sprayed with a /vinyl dye. the original carpets just need cleaning. this is actually the first car I redid the interior, spent a lot of internet time and UTube time to see how the recovering was done

Most items found on EBay, and total cost was $200.00 to 500 I will work on getting a better figure for you

Looks superb.

I was going to enlarge all the pics but see you figured out how to do it!

Anyone in Austin to replace my warped Dashboard?

I have a XK-R 2010, and my leather looks bad because of the heat.
Jaguar doesn't want to install a used dashboard, I am looking for somebody who has experience with replacing these leather dashboards for a price of course.
