Thats not bad actually.
The only concern is that i am changing completely from grey interior to black. What about trunk parts and possibly dash?
I imagine those parts would fit, i dont see why not?

interior paint huh? ill have to look into that.
I never really thought about it before because i was afraid of it wearing off, or something of that nature. Interior paint reasonably priced?

It all depends on the prep work, bad prep, bad paint

SEM = quality paint

I have never used SEM interior paint but I have used some of their other paint and it is a quality product. I have used the plasticote interior paint and it does not cover very well.
