Your interior looks a whole lot better then what mine started out as. I can see why you aren't in a hurry. But it looks nice as hell!!



You have the one part I am looking for!! Those door panels, (kick plates) whatever they are called. My car had plastic ones and they are tan and can't be painted. Where did you get those nice shiny one. I want the "bling" too

Those came with the car. My old fd didnt have them though.

I am pretty sure that malloy sells those for about $100.

The door panel and accesories look great. Im just not sure that the sprays will hold up well on the hard plastics.

I am thinking...
You cant use the interior spray on the plastics. We tried. It failed I did find a different kind of paint though. It was what I used on my center console. I might try that since it worked on the other stuff.



If you try to spray it on the plastics. Once it dries it will chip off. I have a bunch of chips already on the rear cabnets. That is the only thing that wasn't covered with leather. Also.....did you get seatbelts? You can't paint your originals either.

Yea I was thinking that it wasnt going to work on the hard pieces.

I gotta figure something out. Im commited now. I have half black interior. LOL



I am getting seat belts from Lane Change (Scott) next week.

I have a few other parts coming from Yahoo Japan auctions.

Jspecracer7 was so kind to help me out with the bidding and shipping.

You know, I used Plasti-Kote Vinyl color on JUST the kickpanels and doorpanels. **** KICKS *** on the doorpanels. The kickpanels are VERY durable. They will chip, but only with effort. I can kick at them and scratch and they hold. HOWEVER, the edges will chip more easily. I scrubbed them with a scotchpad and alcohol... then painted a few THIN coats... And a few more thin coats. Honestly? I don't think they'll get THAT beat up. They are easy to remove and redo if so. It's the doorsills, bins and rear sides I worry about.... Not to mention the speaker grill surrounds and vents... Oh well... I'm committed as is Dave. LOL

a lot of those little things arent very expensive new, its worth it to get a black one if its cheap.
