Looks pretty good. What paint are you using? I used some paint from late model resto to paint my triple gauge pod piller and it matched the rest of the interior perfect.
Looks good man, how much is that Sem Dye? What kind of quanities does it come in? I too am a victim of the beige interior and have been wanting to paint/do something with it for a while now.
Thanks guys... I actually took the carpet off on the driver door, because I didn't think it would look good if I dyed it. I figured I would just order some new carpet for the door panels, but after I had it off the door I thought I would give it a shot. It worked perfect, you cant even tell that the carpet was brown. I put it back on after everything was ready.
The interior is going to be very hot, especially in the alabama heat but my car being black is hot anyway. I would rather be burning up than have that nasty interior.
The SEMdye is about 18$ a can.

I got around to doing the rear panels this weekend... I haven''t been able to make my rear seat delete, so I just put some fabric over the backseat and tucked it in for now... Doesnt look too bad. Carpet, dash, and console are next...

very nice, one word of advice, dont use any armoral wipes or anything on painted areas. my brother painted most the interior of my car back when it was his, and he didnt realize the alcohol content int he wipes would be bad for the paint. i''ve since replaced all the panels except for the dash(which has bubbles one the passenger side air bag cover :( ) with charcoal due to paint flaking and peeling.
but, i must admit, it is definantly a cheap fix, and looks good as hell for a good time. just stay away from armorall from now on.
Thanks, but I didnt use any armor all on the pieces.... I knew that I couldn''t do that because it would lift the paint off.. Cheap fix? Not really... The cleaner is about 12$ a can, the primer is about 6$ a can and the Dye is 18$ a can. So far it has taken a can a panel. Not sure if your brother just used regular spray paint or not, but thats what it sounds like.

he used interior paint he got from oreily''s or autozone. and yes, 36 bucks a panel, is cheap as hell. as unless you go to a junk yard you will be paying 100+ depending on the panel. 300+ for the dash.
