Re: my complete interior color change....

Wow what a difference! I have tan in my IROC, yuck! I'm going all black with gild piping on the seats and some custom stitching in the seats.

Good job!

It may have been "ugly" in tan, but it was clean

Re: From tan interior to black interior

Re: From tan interior to black interior

WOW, someone's actually doing a different color to Black interior color change the RIGHT way! Very impressive. Glad you got rid of the woodgrain kit too, although I will say it was one of the more tasteful ones I've seen.

Re: From tan interior to black interior

Are you going to sell the tan trim? I need a bunch of pieces for a resto I'm doing . Particularly the door sills and lower rear trim where the rear seat belts come out.

Re: From tan interior to black interior

The black looks good and it would appear that you need to start a new thread about selling your tan pieces. It may help pay for the change-over.
