LoL yeah that looks good thanks,
except the top pic with the blue Flocking that is their Royal Blue,
is a tad on the brightside, doesn't look like their sample does it..

U never know it could work...I could actually hug my Zed 'N' it'll be all fuzzy :lol:
but i'm gonna hunt high n low for some colour matching leather, i'm waiting on a couple of enquires, then i'll get a sample :D

If i can get the leather i think it'll look sweet, & a lot less quidage than the Blue boomerangs for the console that took my fancy..
dam this easy click n purchase life :head:

Is this a follow on from the Friday joke thread? Do that to a Zed and you should have it taken off you and made to drive a Smartcar!
Zed's are not for pimping (only my opinion!)

I personally wouldn't do it to my car.. but I can see why people would.. as an alternative to leather or alcantara for example.. not to mention how effective it's anti-glare properties are (hence why it tends to be used in motorsport i.e. WRC).

Hardly a 'chav' mod as it's functional - but then again I guess it would come down to taste and how you wanted it designed etc.. so whilst flocking itself isn't chav or pimp - the end result could be (like the examples I posted.. :P )
