    05 Corolla Type S interior

    i currently own a '05 Corolla LE.

    i am looking for either a Corolla S interior or an all black interior for my car.

    does anyone know anyone selling either one of these interiors? if so, please let me know.

    the S interior is the only black interior - and before people jump on you for it, it's JUST an s...not a type s or s-type ;)

    as far as interior - you might be hard pressed to find someone letting it go easily. try ebay first...worse case scenario, you can always paint it black and redo the upholstery with seat covers and fabric inserts on the doors/cieling.

    sorry, i guess thats what i meant.
    i'm just fed up with the fact that toyota only gives you two choices of interior for an LE.
    i want an all black interior.

    i had no choice.
    it was surprise gift.
    if i had a choice, my car would've been manual w/black interior, or simply the COROLLA S or XRS.

    Gilty you'd have to go with custom shops. Lots of places will do it...but for mucho dinero. I remember I was going to have stitch craft in HB do my interior for my truck, They were gonna do dash and all kinds of stuff. They can do a vinyl style(which i believe they may have stopped) or sand it down and give it a pearl finish.

    Or there are places that you can buy covers for certain areas of dash Benvento is one that had a lot...expensive but nice. But if you want it completely covered, custom is your best bet. Plus if you go custom you may be able to pick something other than black that may interest you a little more.

    why would he HAVE to go someplace and spend tons of money when he could just as easily take his interior out and paint it himself? not to mention it helps the owner get to know his interior...and makes it easier to dismantle later on :)

    in all seriousness, MANY people have done it, and it does end up looking good. Vamp's has been painted for at least 2 years, and it's always looked good.

    that's why you get a Haynes manual for the car ;) it's a lot easier than you'd think.

    yes i agree. I got the book for my b-day, it is thick and loaded with info. Has helped me with just my little mods here and there.

    Good luck on the S. I have an S and it is hot during the summer. Word to the wise, if you live in florida, make sure you have your windows tinted before buying black interior.
