White Armrests

Ok, I have seen other car models that have white armrests to match their vinyl wrapped interiors. I was wondering if any of you have ever attempted to have your armrest wrapped in vinly, or found some leather like material to replace the cloth with. For one the cloth sort of wears out, and most of the ones that I have seen have faded in color. I took one apart once just to be curious and noticed that the cloth with patience could come off quite easily since only glue is holding it on. It would be possible to have some type of material cut to the same specs, sewed into shape and then glued on for a very clean look to match a half white interior or other colors. So has anyone done this? Any pics?

well, i don’t know much about your question (except that if an apholstery shop can wrap seats and doors and the such that i’m sure wrapping an armrest would be a piece of cake).

but i notice you’re from chico. aka home of california’s party school! hehe. I used to be from up there (well paradise really). So, i just wanted to say whats up, and maybe i’ll see you around sometime when i’m up there visiting friends.

re: Chico

From Paradise eh, I know some people that grew up there? What year did you graduate from High school? Did you go to Chico state or are you going to school in SD? I just graduated from State, and now in the hunt for a marketing related job. Yeah, give me a holler if you are coming up.

i graduated PHS in 2000. I’m here in so cal going to ucsd right now.

just a list of some guys up there that i know: lincoln colyer, jesse browning, kk kennedy, ryan sargent. You probably don’t know any of those dudes cause they are a good deal younger than you… but i figured i’d give it a try. lincoln drives a white G2 (used to have a captiva blue one, but wrecked it), ryan drives a red 4d G2 w/ some black rims (used to have an aztec green gsr, but it was stolen), and my friend jesse used to have a red gsr, but he wrecked it. And kk is just a loser and wishes he had a G2, hehe. So, if you see either of those cars rolling around… they’re my homies! hehe.

I might be up there mid/late september, but i’m not sure. so are the cops cracking down on the races at Seven Mile? Last time i was up there the scene was getting huge!!! and i think the cops were beginning to catch on.

re: PHS

Well I don’t know those guys, but try these. I worked with two guys from Paradise that graduated a while back. They are younger than me so maybe you know them: Justin Lee and David Metroka. What does Lincons white G2 look like? There aren’t that many White G2’s up here. As far as at 7 mile, I am not sure about that, I never went to race there.

i’ve heard the name dave metroka before, but i never knew him. his sister was in my grade though.

linc’s teg is a 92-93, no spoiler, slammed. probably ridin on stock steels, and quite possibly has the rear portion of the exhaust taken off (not sure exactly i haven’t even seen his new car yet… its been that long since i’ve been up there).
