Been checking out various online outlets for hides. One I found that's reasonable is http://justleather.com/. One major item I'd like to do is Desert Dawg type covers with pockets for the crash bars. Got a local gal who'd sew it for me but her prices are rather high for a finished set. She wants $40 to $50 for the floorboard fringe alone. I figure can do better than that. Trying to keep costs down as much as possible (read: cheap a$$). Got some 3/8" Plexiglas for lowers and with the article I found here on the Clinic I can make those for a good low price.

Go into Dalton Carpet Outlet West (Accross from Home Depot) in Grand Chute, ask them who puts the boarders on their carpet, he does great work and is VERY reasonable in price. Or PM me for more info.Don

A Dark Burgundy wine/Black color may look really good with your silver. Just a thought!

Kinda aimin' for a bit of color. Nothing outlandish but enough to make certain areas stand out. Aw jeez, now I sound like a fashion designer! Maybe I'll just go with all silver or black and get it over with.

a falu red would be so stunning and would accent the silver perfectly

OMG, I was kidding...

I do think though that a splash of some color would be good.
