That's gonna look realll nice. I think you should paint the speaker grills and little door cubbies black then black fabric over the stock fabric. I still have quite a bit of black fabric if you wanna do it.

i eventually plan on doing the doors, but i am just taking this one step at a time. This is a huge project in itself because on top of all the new carpet i am repainting many of the interior pieces cause they were a lil beat up. i appreciate the offer i will let you know if i want to take you up on that. i thought you were leaving for florida??

Basically, my moms a travel agent and the company she's gonna be working for (in Florida) isn't going to get the account they'd need her for until December. In the mean time she's working from home for the same company. Kinda sucks but oh well.

Let me know though. Sh!t I'll help you with all that if you need a hand. I haven't done any modding in a while. :(

I dont know about either material, but black and charcoal look good together.

Youre probably going to want to look into spraying your headliner black then too with some fabric spray paint, I did it in my celica and it turned out really good.

OT...Looks like you have the same headunit as me, except its the $200 version instead of the $300...is it a panasonic?

since its going to take me quite a while to get new parts and repaint them, i will try and get some pics of the carpet and interior the way it is now. it looks pretty good right now, just needs some touch up.

maybe i will take some pics tomorrow

Yeah, then you have the same one as me...I love it...an excellent headunit. Did you put any backgrounds on it? I had this for my background when I still had my GA...

yea actually thats a funny story. i had a pic of my grand am and then a pic of me and my girlfriend. i went to pick her up one night and i had the pic of us as the background and i didn't say anything. a few minutes later she was like "what the hell??!!?? how did you do that???" it was awesome, it was a really funny reaction.
