Beautiful work! Quick question...is the trans tunnel side carpet tucked under the leather trans cover or just right up beside it? I am at this stage on my car and wondering what to do.

Tucked up under, makes for a much smoother edge

PS: You mentioned the leather covered rear wall...I meant to tell you when I had the car that I really like that treatment!

Congratulations! Thanks for this photo, too. I plan to do exactly the same thing and it's great to see one done and looking so clean.

Not me. My father in law is the pilot. I've been up a few times with him. Some of his hangar neighbors are building kit planes and they look very familiar (lots of clecos!)
