Hi fellow DSMers!

As soon as I get my car out of the garage in 2-3 weeks, I will start installing the mods i've received during the winter. As some of you know by the thread I started last week about interior paint/dye, I am most likely to convert my interior to black. I was just wondering how much i can expect to have to pay for the whole project, which would include :

- Getting rid of front seats and trade them for blakc ones or race buckets (*)
- Trade back seat or dye it (possible?!?)
- Black carpet
- Black floor mats
- Paint/dye job on all plastic and vinyl
- Headliner
- Hatch lid (paint, trade or CF)
- Hatch carpeting
- Aluminum dash trim kit

While the whole interior would be all torn apart, I guess it would be a good timing to do other things at the same time, such as dynamat (or any other brand, choosing the brand isnt the subject of this thread), change my stereo setup (dunno what exactly yet), and some other "free mods" like tightening the front windows, etc.

I prefer doing everything at once to hve my car torn apart only once :thumb:

I know it wont be cheap... And i'm prepared to it. I am ready to pay more for quality stuff, but not for something that makes no difference from a cheaper brand. How much all in all would it cost me do you think?

Thanks! I'll post pics when I'm done don't you worry!

(*) I've read the thread about ebay and cheaper race buckets, but there doesnt seem to be a clear answer yet. I know Sparco Torinos are worth their price, but are cheaper ones nice too?
 
Ill give a wack at this from what ive seen, prices may vary a little bit.

- Getting rid of front seats and trade them with back seats = $300-400
- Black carpet = $135 shipped
- Black floor mats = Around $20
- Paint/dye job on all plastic and vinyl = Probably $20-40 if you do the work yourself and do it right
- Headliner = I beleive this has to be re-done yourself. I'll guess no more then $20 if you do it right the first time
- Hatch lid (paint, trade or CF) = I beleive it has to be painted so it goes to the paint job question
- Hatch carpeting = This is supposed to come with the carpet replacement
- Aluminum dash trim kit = No idea

Hope this helped some, im looking to do this one day but its my last priority.

looking at $600 at least id guess, the main cost being the seats.
