    Hi all----
    I want to redo the interior ( cloth part) in my gtsi and looking for alternate materials that look good and are not $$$$$$$$.

    I have the "square" weave tan cloth and I dont want to fork out 400 to redo the back and targa....

    I have been to several cloth shops looking but nothing jumps out at me

    going to a furniture shop today to look at heavier materials....

    any suggestions????

    PS--not interested in leather--I have a custom speaker pannel under rear window that I want to be able to hear

    I was in the same situation and found a automotive upholstery shop and looked through "sample books" and found a material for the head lining for a Saturn to be very close.

    its used on the 360CS, most new Lambos, Aston Martins & Lexi
