Well I think I am taking my car to an upholstery shop on Monday to do my headliner in black suede....

here is a pic of how my interior currently looks...



The guy is going to do the headliner all 6 pilar colums the 2 sun visors he is going to do the sun roof sliding panel and he is going to paint all plastic trim pieces a flat black to match the black suede.... he said he will even wrap the headliner handles in suede.... so basically my whole roof will be black!

I think it will look pretty cool and stand out from stock and for the price I think its a good deal!

Also main reason I wanted to do this if you look at the pic you can see on the sun roof the distinct dirt line the light grey interior is getting really dirty so I think the black will look good and stay clean looking

any thoughts??


Thanks!!!

 

Since the interior is already two-tone (Black and Taupe), it could look nice. Post pics when complete.

 

^ yea thats what i was thinking i kinda thought it would put more emphasis on the seats and the arm areas of the doors and make those stand out!

 

awesome! about how long will it take?

 

How much will it cost? It is something I have always wanted to do.

 

I think it will look dope Justin, but I would consider buying some of the plastic parts in the color you want. Especially the moon roof handle thing it will get alot of use and I don't think paint will hold up well. Maybe even the handles I don't know the price for the parts but you can look up prices on acuraoemparts.com

 

It will look good. post some pics after its done too.

 

thanks im kinda excited to see how it will look! i am going to bring my car to the shop he is going to take off the stuff he needs then I will come back Wednesday and he will re install all the stuff so not bad!

this guy is charging me $500 so I thought it wasnt a bad deal! he had some real real expensive suede that they use on lambos and ferraris but he said it was $100 for a yard lol i said no thanks! just give me some normal suede

thanks jamie yea i asked him how it would hold up and he said it was a special plastic paint i will see how it looks when i get it back but if it isnt that good of a quality and peels then i will deffinately get the trim pieces from acuraoemparts.com!

will do as soon as i get it finished ill post some pics up...

next mod is engine bay guna paint match the plastics and try to figure out how to make the engine cover carbon fiber using a carbon/kevlar yellow/black color mix

 

i think it will look great. and sounds like a good deal.

how can you buy the trim pieces in black?

 

cant go wrong with black. Cant wait to see pics Murph

 

alright before and after pics

after



what you guys think?

 

Looks sick

yea i know ive got some vleds on order actually i have been lazy on them as i have led DRL's, reverse lights and LP lights but got loazy on the interior lol

 

Not bad man =)

Looks cool

 

Pretty cool, how long did it take them to do the work?

 

it really makes the interior darker when driving lol its wierd i gota get use to it now!

it took the guy a day to do pretty fast i thought it would take longer

 

it looks good! Did the guy paint the plastic by the front dome lights or is it still tan? I can't tell with that photo

 

Very nice Murph! Enjoy man....

 

^ thanks guy... its a light grey i had him leave that only cuz i wanted to see how that trim around the dome would stand out i think it looks pretty cool

 

wow, that's gorgeous. very unique, wish i could do the same
