It depends on what part of our interior youe gonna redo...i keeping the pillers and the dash the same color because im goin with a red and black with grey decals on the outside and black with grey and red highlights in the interior so the doors and dash you can do with a vinal cover or replacment but you can find people that can do it. all depends on what you want to do but call around...you got time

you could get the seat/door panels redone. vinyl is about 300, leather about 1000. paint the dash using this paint, i think g2 makes it. also paint any plastic parts like the center console or pillars using plastikote

leather was 795 and the paint/dye stuff was about 180 in the end by time i bought all the cans. plus i vinyled the headliner too so the vinyl cost me about 40 bucks.

how'd you take off the headliner? is it held on by glue like the door panels?
n what about your visors? what did you use for that?

to get the headliner out, you have to remove the pillars that are holding it, 2 in the front, 2 where your seatbelts are, and 2 that hold the rear deck in. then you just take out all the pieces that are connected like the visors and the oh $h!t handle and lights. then you pull the whole headliner down and forward and the clips pop out and it slides right out.

oh~ thank alot, i always thought it was held on by glue so i never tried it. maybe i'll try making the top of my interior match my bottom cause i dont know if you noticed, the top is grey. anyone know why honda made it this way??? they should have just made the whole interior black instead of having it two different colors
