SOLD: Beige interior panels (F & R) and new Esty carpet

Recommended Posts

Here we go, this is my pipe dream:

After installing my E24 rears and looking at the whole thing with my E21 fronts, I am now leaning towards a complete black interior so I am looking to:

1- Trade my beige front and rear panels for black ones in good condition, or as good as mine. Not looking to refurbish. I want to trade because I am not sure I will be able to replace them at a similar cost.

2- Trade or sell my brand new set of Esty carpets. I got them for around $200, and will sell them for $175 + ship (they are premium material). Or if someone has a new set in black, I can trade.

I figure if it can happen, it sure as hell can happen on this forum. Local is best.

Cheers

Edward

Tashakes,

I've almost completed my color change spray paint job from dark blue to SEM Landau black. I just have one more door and I'm contemplating filling some dash cracks and spraying the dash.

Man, it looks so much better:

Dyed (Painted)

I may need to spray a little more in the middle section of the vertical seat back, but overall I am exceptionally pleased at the way the dyeing/painting turned out.

Here's the rest of the pics on my Flickr page:

Thanks for the tips guys, I am now going to try the dye process. No idea it could be done and get good results.

Emails sent on the carpet set.

sizzlerscheesetoast, what products did you use for prepping and priming? The results look amazing.

Cheers

Thanks Bob. I found a store that sells the products and will swing by this week, I found they are not available at regular spots like Lowes or HD.

Thanks again for your help.

Edward,

No problem. Make sure you get off all the dirt/grease. Ive seen pics on the net of people using SEM paints and the paint coming off in certain high use sections like the headrest, side bolster, etc. All indicating that the seats were not cleaned properly, resulting in flaked off paint.

I already did one panel, and the results are perfect. Thanks for the heads up on the SEM products.

Cheers

Edward
