Todd,

If your concerned about that then don't do it. I'm not a big fan of custom stuff like that, but the car should be what you want. So do whatever you like and don't worry about the next owner. The goal is not to sell the thing, but rather, to enjoy it everytime you get in it, and hopefully get a another. If you want suede, get suede. It's not for me, but I'm not you. Just make sure it looks good when you're done, the car deserves a certain amount of respect.

Vincent.

If you do suede, do the headliner as well. It's a small thing, but looks great to 'finish' off a car very cleanly. (seen in BMW M5.)

Best!
Ben.

todd,

Sounds expensive, but it would look different.

Would you do the doors as well?
