Anyone built their own interior?

[busmania]

I was scheduled to go to the interior shop in January. By the time they called me in early March to tell me they might be ready in April, I was starting to question if I should really spend $20k (leather seat, door panels, carpet, rear seats and headliner) on an interior with the economy and my business (construction) in its current state so I asked them to put me off till next year. Now I’m thinking maybe they can do the seat and I can do carpet and door panels and do the headliner sometime down the road.

I have some sewing experience. Anyone ever done their own interior? Since there are no longer stock aftermarket pieces (seat covers etc) available, it all has to be “custom” anyway. Am I crazy to think I can tackle the carpet and make decent door panels?
