Hello everyone, my interior came in gray, and now it looks like the picture at the bottom..
Disgusting right? Well all that you see gray in my car is going to become BLACK! Yes ive decided to convert all of it to black/blue.
Im in the process of doing that at the moment, my door panels, back panels, and center console is out of my car being prepped. My Dash isnt out yet i need more time to rip it out and make sure my stuff still works so i can drive my car since it is a DD and its my only car. Im trying to find some black leather seats and my friend is helping me build a custom rear seat delete after christmas. I found a site that sells pre-cut carpet and hoping to order that soon. I will keep updating on this project.

I am planning on doing the same project when money isn't so tight. I am not a big fan of the grey. So I am going to do mine black n' red.
I've seen a few people that have taken out their dash and they said it was kinda a pain, but it will be worth it once it's all done.
Keep us posted.

Make sure you disconnect your battery before taking out the dash. You can bump you airbag system and deploy it.......
Taking out the dash is a PITA........
Haha ya i know that lol. Um after a guy told me he broke his nose while messing with a dash. he forgot to disconect the battery and his face was right against the steering wheel when the air bag blew up in his face.
Are you just going to buy a scrap car w/ black interior and gut it?
No if i had the money to do that i would.. Im doing the ghetto way, painting the dash and door panels. Then im buying seats, carpet and floor mats. Me and my friend are building a rear seat delete so i wont need my back seats lol
Here is what i have done so far:
Dash, Door Panels, Door Sills. Tonight im doing the Kick Panels, Back Panels, and the center console. Right now i just have pics of last night while i was painting them:

Hey man sorry i havent replied sooner.. Since my interior was all grey, my carpet was also gray so i painted over it. You can always tape up the carpet.
I bought it at Autozone. Duplicolor Vinyl & Fabric Paint. And i used the flat black. The paint will rub off easily bc of the texture so if you dont want to be glossy then buy Matte Clear Coat so it says the same as before you put the clear coat on. Hope this helps
I painted a few plastic pieces silver. Not too much, just enough to compliment the exterior. I used a plastic spray paint from Autozone. The key is patience and prep! I painted the pieces over a year ago, and they still look good. You did a good job, by the way.

Is there a way to have it paint it like if it were oem plastic?

People don't notice that it's not oem, honestly. Just take your time. I sanded the pieces down really well until they were super smooth before painting. Just go in thin coats instead of one or two big heavy ones.
