I love the black interior vs other colors, the darker the better! I bet it would be cheaper just to paint the plastics.

 

Definitly get the black. I could not stand tan interior I would have it filthy in 3 days. Like LawnPro said im sure painting everything would work as long as it wouldnt peel off later.

Have fun taking the dash apart.:thumb

 

That's what I was thinking as well, what would be a good way to paint it and the paint actually hold and look good......I don't want my truck to look like shit when I'm done.

 

How bout the paint that's sold for painting pillars to match interior color? Wouldn't that hold up well and give you whatever factory color you wanted?

 

Id try VERY hard to find a salvage yard that might let you swap it out. If honestly never paint that much of the interior. To buy everything peace by peace would cost a fortune.

What if you did a 2 tone? Like some tasteful tan and charcoal?

 

oooppppsss reposted twice

 

unless you find a black one for cheap at the junk yard then i would say do it. but if you do back seat, black carpet, tan dash with stock headliner and the tan plastic pieces behind the seats and a few other trim pieces to match. i think that will look really good and different.:rof. not only that i had that done on my 08 and i loved it.. the price of a new dash is ridiculous

and I've seen a lot of painted dashboards and they always chip. not only that your truck will smell like a rattle can for awhile

 

my buddy painted his 95 Cummins interior black and it looked great, just pull the dash and clean it good and spray her up, only thing is be prepared to get high on paint fumes for a few weeks

^^^^^^^^What do you mean im confused as to what you think i should and should not paint?

As far as using the black interior pillar paint the thought crossed my mind, but i want looking to buy a bunch of little bottles if i didnt have to. Thats why i was wondering if i took it out and prepped the absolute hell out of it, primed it and lay some good even paint down i wonder how that would look? Or there is always the plasti-dip method to see how it would look i guess? what do yall think i should do?

 

You won't buy them new from factory. Dash alone would be $1000 I bet. Not worth it. Look on the bright side, you don't have a dodge with a dash busted into a million pieces

 

If you can get black seats and carpet, maybe door panels, and then leave the dash, pillars, and headliner tan, that might look good. As it is, the factory charcoal interior comes with lighter gray pillars and headliner (at least mine did)

 

Sub'd I been wanting to do this also

 

Someone repainted the interior of an Audi from tan to black, it was with plasti dip and it was good for over 2 years, no peeling or anything, looked OEM, I've been looking for the thread but can't find it. I'm sure repainting would be your best bet instead of trying to find a used interior.

 

Started to plasti dip today. Must say I like it so far cheap and easy looks factory.

 

Are you going to add clear coat or just plasti dip?

 

Gonna clear it as well

 

I was thinking about doing black, and my tan started peeling and saw that it was black underneath. I wonder what it would look like if you just peeled all the tan off and left it black like that???

Dont do it! I did it with my old truck and it looked awful! Im relatively handy, but interiors are a b*tch!

OP, did you end up finishing this project? Do you have any pics you could share?

 

Definitely want to see pics as well. I've painted a few interiors black and it's a pain. I'd consider getting all new factory pieces in the future.
