   i.ve started the trim so more pictures
   
   cut leather or vinyl to size
   
   
   
   spray glue both leather or vinyl and panels
   
   
   
   i use a heat gun to stack leather or vinyl
   
   
   
   rap around panels
   
   
   
   
   all my side panels done now
   
   
   
   
   started on my roof lining
