    So i spent the better half of my day re-painting my interior dash just because when i did it along time ago i did a shitty job and it was all scratched up now.

    [IMG]

    [IMG]

    Now im wondering if i should paint the carpet black or just the floor mats or both? Just leave it even? Anyone have any experience with painting carpet? I painted the little carpet piece in the center console and it actually worked out pretty nice.

    I also came across some leather black seats [after market] that i liked i might think of putting in and maybe just putting a cover over the back seats.

    oh and i only painted the bottom half of the dash, leaving the upper original. Too much work, for some one a little too lazy.

    all you really have to do is to wire up a switch for the overdrive and find a shift knob that lets you push down on the mechanism to shift gears
