Re: My Daughters ride
It looks good get 2 of those small flood lights to warm the paint up to help it cure if its not to late to do so.not the easiest of paint to spray but very durable.

Re: My Daughters ride
I have white seats in my fastback and not easy to keep clean, so with that in mind, think you should maybe look for brown floor carpets as per your picture, will be less upsetting within a few weeks.
I have brown floor carpets in the beetle and they show off very well with the light upholstery and would fit in with the wood paneling you thinking of.
