Hey, I have a 1998 Mustang. It has a red outside [And I want to re-paint. I'm not sure whether Red or Gunmetal Gray]. But, that's regardless. I bought the car used, and right now it has black carpet in the back shelf [Where the rear windshield is] and the part that's the headrest in the back seat. The dashboard is also black down to the Shifter, then the rest is... beige, I guess. [I'm kinda color blind, so colors are iffy with me](Sidenote: My roof has black fabric... it's so soft ^-^). I was wondering how much it'd cost to replace the center console, side panels, and carpet with black and Leather seats?

Another thing:
The panel infront of the passanger side airbag is coming off, I guess. I bought it like that. On the left side it's not flush with the rest of the dashboard. I know the owner before me got side-swiped on the passanger, but I'm not sure if the airbag deployed or not. Does anyone know if I have to replace it, or is there a way to just push it back? I've hit it a few times with my palm and it won't budge. I was also thinking about just crazy glueing it to the dash.

 

your looking at over 2,500.00 with labor man goodluck. Go to www.latemodelrestoration.com that should help you out.

 

I just need the materials-- I can do the labor.


The link is pretty useful. But I can't seem to find the actual carpet? Do I get the carpet somewhere else and just custom cut it? =\

EDIT:: Haha! Found it. Sorry, wasn't looking hard enough. :P

Thanks for the site.

 

your welcome

 

I did the math, and with the new everything, it'd cost around $1,400. But, most of those peices came in the color they're in my car now and it said "Paint to match".

So, should I just paint the pieces I have now?

 

I would just order through them on the phone then you know what your final product is going to be.

 

i think most of the time everything comes black and then you have to paint to match if you have something different.

 

Well, could I just paint the stuff I have now to make it black? Or is that a bad idea?

I'm not too sure. Something tells me it is, but then again-- how's it any different from painting it straight from the factory?

 

i have heard a lot of people have sucess with painting it, and then again i have heard a lot of people say its crap. have you tried ebay or anything for the trim ppieces you need?

 

Actually, I haven't. I think I'll do that now.

And I don't really wanna make my interior look like crap by painting it and it coming out bad.
