I understand many threads have been posted about painting the interior but I couldn't find one that covered this exactly. So is it possible to paint the entire interior, including headliner, leather seats, carpet. Basically everything. I have the stock tan interior and I want to change it all to a gloss black. Anybody ever painted it all themselves?
 
I know there is someone on this forum who has painted their entire 2g dash a gloss silver, and it turned out very nice. As to the headliner and carpet, you can buy it from many auto catalogs / websites, in your choice of color. If you want, you can remove the headliner and paint it, but I think it would be easier to replace the carpet than to paint / dye it. When it comes to the leather, however, I wouldn't really suggest trying to change the color. It would probably be better if you sold your seats in the classifieds and tried to find some black ones to replace them. But that's just IMHO.

Good Luck! :thumb:
 
Eventually I plan on gettin black torinos but I just don't feel like waiting that long to get rid of my tan interior.
So about changing the leather. Can't it be reupholstered? I have no idea how much that would cost thou.
 
i would say don't do it. i did and i regret it a whole lot. i wish i never did. it became to much to keep up and couldn't deal with it anymore
 
Look at my gallery...you can reupholster them and they woudl look good..i origionally had tan seats
