I like that interior a lot. Is it dyed or did you swap it?

The black wood trim looks great too.

I'm not really loving the oval tips, but it's nice another owner go the true dual route...add on headers and you will be good to go.

I love the look you're going for.

Looks like your tranny might be leaking oil?

hey guys! thanks for the comments. heres wht i used to paint the dash and door panels: DUPLICOLOR vinyl and fabric paint FLAT BLACK


its like 7.98 with tax

this stuff is amazing! dries very fast just gotta make sure you clean the material free of any armorial and dirt. Make sure you do nice even coats. for areas of like high traffic that would be touched alot more i made sure i did alot more coats on that area.

for the wood trim i used:


for this i just took a scotch bright pad and ruffed up the edges i didnt use a primer because i honestly forgot when i got home from the O'Riley's so i just did a "dusting" coat 1st then i did light coats till it came out the way i wanted to.

and about my exhaust im kinda iffy on my mufflers aswell.. im thinking about doing just Dual Megan Racing Carbon fiber Spec M mufflers.. i went with the oval tips because i havent seen that many people with the oval tips. and i like to be different.. but Thank you everyone for the comments and Compliments!! more pics up after i roll my front fenders and drop my car more today!!
