hey anything you have done to the interior of your car that is not stock post a pic of it i want to see what other guys are doing to their interiors i would post mine but i'm too far from the car and the camera and all i can do is dream of the next mod to the camaro

 

not necessarily 'customized' but I did it all myself.

 

NICE where did you get the seat covers?
:hail:

 

Everything in the pics I made myself, including the seat covers.

 

you made them yourself? dang dude, that's awesome. i got a lot of respect for that!!! it looks awesome. :hail: :lala: :hail:

 

where did you learn to do that? i would love to do something similar in my car, what was the cost for you to complete the project?

 

I learned that stuff at school, i went to a tech school in wyoming called Wyotech. I paid $350 in materials and that did everything.

 

In progress of putting red accents in my interior (it's a red car).

 

I've seen commercials for that school on tnn i think, just makes me wonder if there is a school like that here in missouri

 

Fyrelance i love the look of the red dash in your car, i think it actually looks better with the black gagues than it would with white ones.

 

I accented a little, but not anything as large as fyre did.

The small amounts i did set off the white gauges nicely.

I cant image link from geocities, so you can go to

www.geocities.com/admrlam/Bird.html

I think the interior pages are the second or third ones in.....

 

admrlam nice ride. You got any pics of the gauges in the dark with the lights on? I've been thinking of getting the overlays for my car but dunno how they'd look at night.

 

i agree.

your car looks damn nice inside fyrelance.

im not as ballzy as you.. i painted the plastic piece UNDERNEATH that one... it actually turned out really nice though, white face guages with a metallic blue border, all home made

 

I didnt really customize it per se but i changed the orange to grey and modified a camaro console to fit into it..





then i put an 82 T/a console in

 

i noticed that the bird guys seem to be more into interior work, how bout the camaro guys lets see some more pics of what you have done to your cars

 

Why thank you.

Yeah I was going to get white faced gauges but then I painted that interior piece and decided I liked it that way and having white gauges would probably take away from it.

 

Why, thank you also

Sweet. I'm also in progress of a few more interior accents to bring it all together, but I don't want to go overboard.

Here's the latest thing I've been working on. I also want to maybe paint the outer two heater vents (but not the middle two because the area surrounding it is red now) and maybe speaker grills and the little corner vents on the dash. But, I'm taking my time on deciding, like I said, don't wanna go overboard.

 

I swear its all stock......in 98 that is

 

CustomX that interior is imaculate. It really came from a 98. Did you have any problems mounting the dash or was it a direct bolt/screw in? how much did it cost ?

 

Custom-x that is a sweet interior...oh and i have a 42" custom x max q bodyboard..so if thats what ur sn refers to...ride on

 

Here's what I have so far: Tenzo Racing seats, Custom door panels with no door handles, and SPAL windows with the switches mounted in the door (as opposed to in the center console). This is an old pic, the door panels are now all cloth. I'll have to take a new pic tomorrow.

 

white faced guages and floor mats...

 

whoops...no pic...

 

rear sub display

 

like the box very original

 

My Interior:


Recovered doorpanels & Sail panels (not shown); painted trim pieces


added map pocket to dash

The car is now off the road, redoing door/sail panels, getting paint & replacing the LG4 with an LB9

 

Josh, I love the box, I guess great minds think alike.

 

"Stealth mode"



And with the panel off.....

 

yeah its an old name for me, back when i first reged on cz28 in 98. But ive since moved off x boards when pete left. So i get all my stuff custom from him at his new shop instead of custom from him at customx.


The dash is close to a bolt in, but thiers alot of stuff that has to be moved around, cut rewired etc.

Teh whole setup cost me 50 bucks, but i pulled it out of a good freinds 98 after he plowed into a k wall at 145. Expect to pay 3-4 times that from most places for a used one.

 

Guess so...Yours is pretty sweet as well

 

spin demon, your car would look stock to someone who never new anything about thirdgens that is pretty sweet i bet no-one has ever tried to steal it

 

:rockon:

Included are: 4th gen leather seats, 4th gen seatbelts, 4th gen console, custom doorpanels, firebird floormats, complete plastic change from red to black

 

A newer model shifter with firebird handle and an e-brake handle out of another GM car (can't remember)



Bowtie sticker beside dash emblem



Hope them pics work

 

have you ever noticed how much dirtier your car looks when you take a picture from inside it??? it looks clean when you take it, then you look at the pic and wonder what the hell happend!

 

Try looking at the interior at night under blacklight. My car looked clean, but my black floor mats looked like a starfield. And for some reason all the dust/dirt was like a wierd dark green.

 

Hey Josh14p, sounds like we have the same plans for our cars, and the same rims (weird). Good luck with it dude, and hopefully we get what we want

~Matt

 

thanks man...not too many peeps have the same rims as us...guess it makes us special

 

Here are my changes so far:
* White Gauges - MacEwen
* White Shifter Overlay - MacEwen
* White HVAC Overlay - own design / production
* 97 Trans Am Neutral Leather seats
* Shifter plate, Gauge cluster plate, Radio bezel and Heater vents in console painted in GM Pewter metallic paint
* Neutral carpet and matching embroided mats from ACC
* Painted interior trim to match the neutral interior

Coming additions:
* Re-do door panels and rear side panels in matching neutral color. Currently they are regular Gray.
* Possibly a few more details painted pewter metallic

Ok....my pics worked last night...do yall see the pics about 6 posts up, or are they just red Xs?

 

That interior is gorgeous! Might I suggest an aftermarket steering wheel? I dunno maybe I just don't like the cover. But that interior looks sweet, love it

 

Thanks!

Absolutely! I forgot to add that to my list of things to come. That and a matching shifter **** is definitely coming. I don't care for that cover either, but the leather on the steering wheel is worn/dried out so if I have nothing on it my hands (and knees LOL) are all black after a drive.



Ken

 

Yes we are special Josh. I can't wait until my car is done so that I can run with an L98. I am going with performance first, then I will be working on the paint and interior. Thanks for all the good ideas guys.

~Matt

 

Custom X....I did a search and came up with no results...

How did you get your 4th gen gauges to work in your car? Speedo, fuel, etc?

 

I think my thread is going to die now that we can't post pics anymore, oh well sweet cars guys you definatly gave me some ideas.

if the ability to post pics comes back i may try to revive this thread

until then
peace love and burnt rubber

 

Ack... can't post pics...what the heck happened?

 

Nevermind just saw the sticky. Doh!

 

That cluster is ls1 so the tach needs recalibrated (with a dakota digital box, since the ls1 tach is 4 cyl cal), also the ls1 fuel gauge doesnt work so you have to go aftermarket. fyi all guages are electrical as well....

 

I really like that LS1 dash Custom, very nice work. Maybe one day I will be able to think of something cool like that, but for now I will go with the ideas on this board. I mean come one, where else can you get such great ideas, and who would know better than the members of this website?

~Matt

 

Old pics, excuse the lack of door panels
