Talking Got any interior modding ideas?

hey guys so i have decided to make the main color of my car black and secondary orange like a dark orange. Well first My interior is tan with tan leather so how can i change the color of this? my carpet is a bit torn and also tan. I plan on repainting my dashboard, door panels wheel and gauge cluster black and orange as well. is there a certain paint i should use? i'm also gonna change the lighting to orange so i might just go with some orange led strips. i have an idea of what this would look like





IM ALSO GONNA START THE ENGINE BAY AS WELL SORTA LIKE THIS




WELL GUYS GIVE ME SOME SUGGESTIONS AND ALL COMMENTS ARE WELCOME HERE THANKS

As for the seats you could get some type of seat cover. Member Montelicious had some black leather ones that just covered part of the seat. IMO they looked pretty good. Try to find a set of black leather seats at a junkyard. As for the carpet you could try to dye it. My buddy dyed a redish carpet black once. He used Rit clothing dye and sprayed it on with a spray bottle. I'm not sure but I think he diluted it with a little water, sprayed it on and let it dry in the sun. Or you could try to find a black carpet at a Junkyard

Edit here is a pic of montilicious's covers and a link to the bigger pic of them. [IMG]https://montecarloforum.com/forum/me...=gnr-img-album[/IMG]

I also agree on seat covers. Plus they got interior carpet paint, in a can, I got it from Advance Auto parts, and I sprayed my tan roof, black. It holds pretty well, and looks great. If that helps any....now for the dash and engine bay, that seems like an excellent idea. It would look great.

Try to find a wrecked tony stewart and get the interior.

It has beautiful black leather with orange stitching. It's subtle and nice.

Painting the dashboard, it is very easy to do too much. be careful

did the paint make your carpet/roof rough to the touch? i spraypainted my old lumina carpet black with regular spraypaint and after it dried it was rough to the couch
