I was looking around my car todayand noticed that the plactic paneling stuff on the inside (92 Camaro RS) doesn't look that great. It's all discolored and a lot of it is cracked. Anyway, I would just as well get rid of the plastic pieces. What would you suggest I do to replace them?

That depends on what you're looking for. Start searching. You've got Ebay, classifieds and many sites. If you're in the New York area I've got almost an entire set right down to the sill plates but it's all grey.

What I did
I got used door trim, upper console, and kick panels from Hawks, They were nice and the upper console was only 25 bucks...ebay wanted more so look up prices from hawks first before bidding on ebay (hawks got me the pieces in 2 days of calling!!!). What I did for the hatch, speaker, and scuff plates was a repainting.
To repaint:
1. Go to home depot and buy "Bin Primer" in the spray can...the stickiest primer available. Also buy some flat black spray paint (general purpose). Also get 150 and 200 grit sandpaper.

2. Wash and sand the pieces you want to paint

3. Let dry fully (lay out in the sun), then prime

4. When primer is FULLY dry, sand down the runs (unless you paint perfectly).

5. Repaint with 3 coats of flat (I used black). Let dry fully and reinstall

I want to stress on letting it dry fully and use multiple coats. i got some scuffs already in mine, but ah well.

If you need an upper console (black)(bought 2 by accident )
or carpeted beige Kick panels, or carpeted beige lower console, let me know. I have them and will give em to you for free..just have to repay me the shipping.
DO NOT DYE CAPRET THAT MAY COME INTO CONTACT WITH CLOTHES>>>THE DYE WILL GET ON YOU!!!

Any questions send em.
I need to get pics of my interior swap. looks pretty sweet...black and red thing goin. LOTS OF VELOUR
