Has Anyone Had Any Luck Re Trimming The Interior

[reeceo21]

Well i personally find the interior a little ugly. im looking for some new seats and doing the door cards in like a black suade or something. has anyone done such a thing maybe also paint the dash

I'm retrimming the inside of a mates 300zx at the moment , everything except the seats, so it's definitely possible, just don't paint the dash it will look dodgy and if u scratch it it's stuffed, there are vinyl stainers that work better if u must change it but avoid it. I'm happy to send u some pics if u want an idea of how it works

I did the roof/door trims on my old car myself with blue suede, if you're gonna DIY make sure you get a good adhesive otherwise in a few months it may unstick, especially the roof, I had to re-do the roof because I didn't stick it together properly

Ok guys i did some work on the trims tonight so these are some progress shots.

These are the pieces ive done so far pretty much started with the easy bits to get used to the new glue im using,Selleys Kwik Grip Spray BTW awesome stuff only problem is it has no colour so it can be a pain to see what you have done.

If your doing this yourself this is a good start in the way of tools, a sharp knife is the most important, the majority of these tools came from my window tint/vinyl wrap tools so if your a DIY fan you will get heaps of use out of them.

The trim pieces start out like this,ive already removed the factory fabric which was a rancid grey coloured tweed,its also important to remove any foam left behind because you will get lumps.

Once your done they look something like this.

Once they are put together you end up with one rear quarter trim.

Hope that gives you a bit of an insight into how it happens, once ive finished ill endeavour to start a detailed DIY post or at least post up a finished few shots in the car.

Here are a few of my interior which was done earlier this year.

Before the door cars were retrimed in Bride Graduation.

I also have the roof, parcel shelf & sun visors trimmed in the plain black bride material.
