Interior Change from Tan to Black and Tan
I got this ES Red 2000 GT in November and decided to change the interior from Tan to Black and Tan...
...and installed Old Panasonic in dash with NEW Cobalt Amplifier and Subwoofer...
What do you think???
I gave it a face lift but more to come on the exterior now that the interior is complete...
formerly this

Okay, I HATE the peanut butter interior (swapped mine 
), but I kinda dig it, only because it's tastefully different. I wouldn't have done it to a red car, but to each his own. What kinda paint did ya use?

Did you paint the flat black on the hood with a rattle can by any chance?

okay first off.. I LOVE IT! ha ha
I have the tan interior in my black 99 and never really liked the way it looked but it was doable till i saw this! I was going to swap everything for black but this look just looks.. amazing ha. I think it looks exotic ha. Did you paint it black or swap out pieces with black ones? I really wanna just swap tan to black and not paint anything

...and it was unpollished and in need of paint (not out of a rattle can)...
I have only just tackled the interior...and brakes
the flat black and the flat red are both spray can specials...
...the hood and front bumper were that way....but it did give me a real good look at what StuzGT will look like when done...
To those of you who dont like peanut butter...
hehehehe

I painted the dash and used duplicolor with Duplicolor Paint Adhesion promoter...
I bought new parts and had to paint even the new parts because nothing came in black in 2000...it was charcoal...
...the seat belts are all new and a dark charcoal but black enough to not matter...
The interior was really greasy and dirty so cleaning the tan parts was a big job too...

Thanks...
...I get that "lower that car" routine a lot...
...and as for "sexy" ...a pastor has to be careful!
So...lower will be the last thing I do with StuzGT
