Default New interior

Just figured I would show off what I've been working on the past few weeks or so. Got the buckets, back seat and everything else you see except carpet for 170. Carpet cost me ~100 so not bad for under $300 Hope you guys enjoy. (Car came with bench)

Look's really good man, nice work. those seats look to be in great shape! (might want to paint the rails though :-P )

If you want to touch up that steering console where the blue has faded, i recommend you Dye it black, i think it would look great! or you could try to find a blue that would match...

SEM makes a great vinyl dye that would work well for you!


SEM.15133 Wedgewood


or

SEM.15013 Landau Black (OEM black)


and maybe move the Sports gear to the trunk ;-P

Yeah still have some little odds and ends to tie up. One is painting the damn seat brackets, didn't think they would stick out that bad. The guy gave me a can of GM blue die which is what I used to spray the center armrest. I just don't know how long it's going to last,, dont want to paint it then have it chipping off. Just got new trim rings in today for the corvette rallys, so have to wait til next week to buy more stuff!!

You can clear coat vinyl dye for better protection.

don't use blue paint though it will clog the pores of the plastic and you will never be able to dye them, and it will chip off, even with an adhesion promoter.

i just painted all of my interior part either black or silver, once i get everything cleared and back in i will post some pics...it looks great even with out the clear..
