My grey dash got cracked, but I had a replacement brown one (YUK!), so I dyed it black using Dupli-color and sumthin' else (old, old, thread). I used some acetone or alcohol to wipe everything down first. I did the rest of the interior as well, but I've scratched it up a bit during the last 2 swaps. I'll touch it up this Summer.

hey satan, did that bubble appear after you painted your dash or was it already there? Once I painted mine I noticed the same thing. I used dupli-color too. I'll put a pic showing the spot i'm talking about.

here's what I'm talking about

Thats what I was wondering, the paint, how is it on bubbling and cracking with use over time? Does it peel easy or anything?

 

[CBurgs'88]

Well for me it didn't bubble on any pieces except that exact same spot on the dash. I'm wondering whats up with that spot.

That spot always bubbles on our dashes (maybe not on all of them)...but yes, in the same place. I thought I had some more pics of the finished interior, but will have to look around for 'em.

Basically recovered the targa headliner and door panel fabrics with a black-velvet look, replaced the carpet with black, and painted all of the interior plastics, 'cept for a few that I still wanted in grey (as contrast).

A few may remember from 2X2K6... Got alot of compliments and alot of ppl asked what I'd charge to do theirs ;-)

Edit: Found some pics of when I changed the fabric, before the repaint.
