When choosing a color scheme, practicality must be taken into account, since too light tones will get dirty very quickly and lose their chic look.
Step 4
Start with a torpedo. Dismantle it and take it out of the passenger compartment. Disconnect all parts, plugs and trims. Tighten the individual protruding parts with vinyl tape. In terms of texture, it is no different from real materials, and in terms of wear resistance it is several times superior.
Step 5
Thoroughly wash and degrease the entire surface of the torpedo before applying the film. Peel off the protective layer from the back of the film. Begin gluing it gently, heating it evenly over the entire surface. Smooth out thoroughly with a plastic spatula to remove any bumps and bubbles.
Step 6
Craft a torpedo pattern. Make a blank and try it on. If the workpiece sits well on the torpedo without forming any folds, pull it over the panel and sew. Then take out the basting stitch.
Step 7
Make patterns for all seats and side trims. It is necessary to sew them according to the same scheme. If desired, you can also alter the ceiling. In this case, you should leave a rigid backing, just drag it with new material.
Step 8
Replace the standard interior lighting with an alternative. It is best to use LEDs as they are much more durable, more economical and less expensive. Unlike standard bulbs, LEDs do not heat up.
