Looks great. Did you get the door panels from them also or do them yourself?
I got my seat kit from a local guy years ago and it went on easily but is starting to show some wear along the edges.

They made chrome headliner trim. I have a set around here but I imagine some of the smaller corner pieces are missing. It did have some surface rust as well but they made it

take some steel wool to the chrome trim. it will clean up nicely. unless it is pitted into the metal.
