work from outside to in.

Paint first, then exterior.

i think he means paint then interior. as exterior would pretty much include paint. but yeah you should do outside before inside. you may want to see if the place that you will have paint your car can do the carpet as well. as for the seats, you can have yours re-upolstered or just swap to teg or newer civic interior. hope that helps.

Pull everything out of the car and send just the shell to be fully painted, the bare metal interior and engine bay, will make the car 10x cleaner. After it is painted throw everything back in, carpets, seats, panels, dash, your car being one color completely will make it 10x better looking than a lot of cars that get resprayed and they half ass it.

Good luck.
