its come down between painting my interior or doing it over in vinyl.. curious as if anyone has done this .. which is better ect.... Pics would be great of both.. late~
 
both are a bith to do and must take time to do right.

painting - some recommend krylon fusion, some just go with the shit at pepboys. sand/prep/primer/paint... each step should be taken VERY seriously and not skimped upon. make sure you find a nice clear coat too

vinyl - i hated trying to vinyl my old 3000GT... suffice to say i lacked the skills though :barf: anyway, if you dont have a heat gun, or are too cheap to buy one - dont even think about it... vinyl only looks good with ONE piece.. not two glued together. this means you have to stretch, pull, mangle the vinyl until it fits perfectly over the piece you are trying to vinyl.. and it's HARD.

i personally would never attempt to make my car look anything more than stock but that's just me :thumb: good luck and i'm sure others will recommend their preferences
 
well my friends mom owns a sign store.. so i get vinyl real cheap.. she can get sign vinyl that already has the glue on the back.. and would not a high watt hair dryer work well to dry? .. just really need some pics of some vinyl and or some steps would be great.. i know some of you have done this.. help out some ;]
