Hey guys.
Finally got around to doing some work on my car like planned. Took me a long time to paint everything, but IMO it really brings out the beauty of the 1st gen interior. What do you guys think?

Very nice! Not exactly the colors I would have chose but nice. You can paint the interior pieces with any higher quality plastic paint. Just go slow, make sure its clean before you start and apply a bunch of coats.

Oh yeah, im over the colors now, but i have 2 questions/suggestions. First..... those seat covers kinda suck over a gen 1 seat.... you might want to get fc seats... they might actually fit. I see you did the dash, and everything else, but what about the headliner, and rest of your interior? Are you going to leave it stock, or going to change it over as well. Not to be harsh, but the color scheme is kinda tacky, and if you do it all that way, it will be a little less of a crime.....

that's not his car. Go to his homepage. his FB is blue, and in really good shape. There is no way that this guy with over 1000 posts would do that to his car. Go to the link in the South Forum. The real Lime Green FB is in Garland, TX. It just saddens me to say that there really is a seven driving around out there that looks like that. :'(
