86' supra sunsport rebuild

I hate to be the guy who asks this, but I really want to do mine. How much was the upolstry work?

Dude, look up Koch Upholstery in Rockford, yeah it might be a hike for you but they beat the pants off of everyone else on price and the quality is great!!! They did my entire boat except for the two side panels and the captains seat. I was out the door for all that work for about 1/4-1/3 the cost quoted by all the other shops in our area.

I was undecided about the orange at the back of the boat, but i LOVE the orange piping on the vinyl. Can't wait to see it all put together.

Something doesn't look perfect with regards to the colour blends in the paint work. I have been thinking this for a few days now. I think the problem is in the flow of the white to grey to orange on the side of the gunwhale portion. I like the colours and the interior a ton but the transition in colours is bothering me. Perhaps it needs a narow band or orange towards the front in the crease under the rubrail and eliminate the grey on the lower section of the gunwhale.

Nows the time to chage things up a tad since they have to redo the orange anyhow....

Brotha fill me on how ur doing that on your pics , excel ?
Photoshop ? I like the first and the last of what u did , do it on the one I have it sideways on my driveway ...

At last I have figured it out.... Run a orange stripe from the nose to the rear section inside the ribbed section just under the rub rail. Using the same distance from the rub rail to the stripe have it slice in front of the charcoal section. This making a white, orange, charcoal and back into orange slice. Is the orange in the piping in the interior the same shade as the rear section?? If not then the added stripe can be the same colour adding continuty.

See my problem was the boats interior screams fast but the exterior slowed it down. I think with the added stripe will make it look slimmer and stream lined...
