    so i got a bored about an hour ago and decided to do this.... looks like my vw was a light blue in its early days of its life. what a prick of a designee the made there hoodlinings. (vw still havnt solved that problem) it looks like someone has been here before as well take a close look and you will see all the dots on the left side have been drawn in and on the right side it is actually perforated LOL here is a photo from underneath haha also earlier today i swapped out the back rest of the beige seats onto my bases so i could have some low back seats they fit up sweeeet as!!! took it for a drive and i have so much more visibility around me now its crazy!!!! so now that the seats fit and look super ugly i better do some upholstery work looking forward to this part. ah thats why i ripped the hoodlining out as well as it had some rips in it and what not. since im advertising Midnight Upholstery on the side i should probably have the inside looking good
