Some real leather in the ZT - Page 2

Stop backtracking lol!

I think the front end of the 75 was never really good looking, I believe the MK1 ZT is the best looker.

I'm bias of course but agree the ZT in mark 1 form is better than mark 2 but the 75 is more appealing in mark 2 form. And it's not backtracking it's comment polishing

Hello Lee,

I have seen it like this before where its laid flat onto the trim but your is pleated (if that's the right term} which i have not seen before.

That is dreadful,

What goes through peoples minds is a mystery.

Hi Gary,
That confirms Mike was right in guessing what you meant. I've not seen those ebay kits before, I got the idea from a LR Discovery and left the stitching in simply because I like it. I did the passenger side vent first and it looked plain. I'm not 100% happy with it but I'm not likely to see another like it and I did it myself. I value the opinions of fellow car nuts and they are always welcome positive or negative. Thanks for your reply.
Lee.

Hi Ben,
That looks better than I'd imagined from the eBay pics. Much neater around the centre vents than mine. Did you get around to doing something with the airbag badge area? Lee.

Got to say ... the dash in the pic does not look like a quality job imo, the seams are in the wrong places and also looks like it could do with a shade of padding as the seams are protruding above the panel level.
Not something I would consider doing if that was the end result, if it came out like an Aston Martin interior then fair enough ... nice addition.

I like it. It's different and unique. For that it gets my thumbs up.
