I'll tackle the B and C pillars this weekend along w/ my front and rear shifter bushings and linkage bushings.... maybe throw the cat back on as well but im trying to resist the temptation

Dude.... resistance to mod this car is futile.

Obviously.

well finished the interior black out here is some pics let me know what you think.

center console

A pillar and vent ring

B pillar

C pillar

they might look shinny but it cause i just wiped them off so there were looks great im very happy

Looks good looks good

i'll use the plasti dip for all of it because u can revert back to stock if need be, and i like the flat black better... i'll prolly paint the grab handles as well, the trim on the dome light and map light, and the covers where the seatbelts connect to the pillars.... then dye the headliner.... Fuull black out

**Gokart3** · 03-31-2008, 01:01 PM

I really want to do my A/B/C pillars and the headliner in black Alcantera, but it's cubic $$$'s!

Bishop · 03-31-2008, 01:04 PM

Yeah, i was considering the alcantara option as well but i have heard the sun will damage the material after a while... instead of dying the headliner possibly a perforated black alcantara headliner? i MAY splurge and do that since im kinda stumped as is for the headliner

Nick Mc · 03-31-2008, 01:07 PM

yeah i love the plasti dip i used it on all of my parts, and i was thinking the same thing grab handles and map and dome light and seat belts covers but ran out of plasti dip have to get more and dye the roof? sounds cool any idea on how you would do that?

Dupli-Color Vinyl and Fabric in Black for the headliner.

My boy did it in his 04 STi show car, and it came out awesome.

I'll ask him to get me some pics

Bishop · 03-31-2008, 01:51 PM

+1 for pics.... i may not have to use alcantara

I sent him a message, no response yet.

If you were in NY, my boy Kenny does custom fabrication.

A member here, and friend of mine "jdmdave" had our friend Kenny do his interior. Headliner, door cards, and rear seats. Re-wrapped the entire interior in Bride material: jdmdaves sti ** Monster Sport C/F hood post 1488**

I was gonna do black alcantara for my front and rear seats, door cards, headliner, visors, shift boot, and ebrake boot. For me, it was gonna cost a lil over 1,000.

I will post the pics as soon as I get them.

Cool cool, i guess im just down to debating what to do for the headliner.... i'm not a huge fan of racing seats, but from what i have seen and read Brides are pretty comfortable and they're stylish

Great write up man. One of these weekends I may have to do this

Tony Bolony · 03-31-2008, 09:54 PM

great write up. I did mine a few weeks ago, but didn't let it dry enough, so I may need to re-paint them again.

Do it

its pretty easy and if need be, you can drive the car around w/out the trim pieces while they dry or are being painted

Yeah I was in a bit of a rush cause I was at somebody else's house. If I were at my own house, I wouldn't worry about the time.

Very nice write up!
I wonder if the s203/204 owners try to make their interiors silver.
