Default Interior re-do photos (before-n-after)

Well over the last couple months I have taken the interior completely out in hopes of getting this tan interior to disappear. All the panels were prepped w/red scotchbrite and alcohol. I used Dupli-Color Adhesion Promoter and Flat Black for the panels. The carpet ($30) was an ebay purchase, as well as the center console ($85) and steering wheel ($51.)
I cant take credit for the red parts, those I had farmed out. Also added were the Corbeau Forza seats ($642.) What do ya all think???
BEFORE,,,,


AFTER,,,,



All that is left is to repaint the new AC registers and center trim. (Had to buy new/used cause old vents were tan and center trim vents are busted.)
Also, i need to put my blk door handles on

the adhesion promotor is the trick to the whole dye process, personally i used semms in my interior, went from charcoal to medium gray and black, ill also post pics when my panels are back in the car.

Looks pretty good. I always wanted to get rid of the tan in my old car, only got as far as the carpet though.

Sure beats trying to track down black interior parts that everybody seems to want. Standby, I'll try to get some more pics in here.

The last pic is of my new MAC UD pullies matched up to the old. The person i bought the car from said it had the crank and water pump pully but when the alternator was replaced a stock one was put back on. I knew this was incorrect cause the alt needle bounces around like they always do after ya put UD pullies on. I matched the old vs new and they must be MAC pullies as well cause the diameter is the same. However, on the alt pully the outside diameter of the pullies is the same but the ribs on the other are just a bit taller. Anyone want these pullies for $20?
