    Wow! You work pretty fast to have all that done in one day. (noticed all your pics from the last post was taken the same day.) Looks good.

    I used one half of a quart to cover everything you see in the picture. I'm guessing with one quart I could have had enough for a second coat and still done some other areas.

    carpets are in! look at the last pics . . . someone's not paying attention! :p
    it's actually not hard. just have to make REALLY big cutouts and the seats fall right in.

    i drove mo's car today and it is amazing how quiet it is now. before you could defintly hear the exhast in the car. it wasnt loud but defintly could be heard. now i dont hear any exhast. the t-5 is now the only real noise that i hear. we will rebuild it and put a shifter boot on it and mo's car will be as quiet as a cadilac.
