It’s all very well making your truck look like the dog’s dangly bits from the outside, but no customised truck is complete without a pimped interior. The possibilities are endless, and the degree of customisation is determined only by budget. Prices start at a couple of hundred pounds for curtains, and reach well over £10,000 for a fully customised leather interior. Don’t forget the dashboard and other plastic trim. It’s no good re-upholstering the seats and door panels in hot pink, but keeping the dashboard in boring grey.
What the expert says
Larry Piper, www.pipertrimmers.com: “We get plenty of calls from drivers who want to customise vehicles they don’t own, and we suggest they opt for leather floor mats, curtains and a leather steering wheel. All of these things can be removed when they hand the truck back. But if it’s your truck, then you might want to go for the complete works – with matching leather panels, upstairs and downstairs beds, seats, floor mats and curtains.”
