fabric paint?..you mean like...dye right? let me get this strait, your back seats are now red and black while the rest of your interior is either grey or tan..sounds like a winner.

also 03 sleeper (sorry for multiple post btw) where did you buy your lowering spring's? i'm wanting to lower her but i think i'm going to put the exhaust on first because i think its a bad idea to lower her if im going to be buying bigger rims right? i need to see what fits then lower how so it doesnt rub. Correct?

I've seen a Camaro guy paint its seats with some kind of fabric paint.
it looked really really good.
Have to look if I find the pics again.
I considered this, after seeing it, at least as an option.

it is not that hard to reupholster the seats and it will look a lot better when it is done. What are you going to do when the time comes and you want to sell it you think that people are going to like painted seats.

The tire/wheel combo sits below the spring perch meaning.......when you lower a vehicle, everything above it comes closer to the springs perch, but the distance from the tire/wheel combo to the perch DO NOT change.
so......go back to the tire shop and tell them when they know how to do more than change the oil on the car to give you and call and you might let them mount your wheels and tires.....

So you know all about that motor stuff, yet you don't know a simple suspension setup?
