DCrosby: did you get rid of the interior pieces from your RIP FD? it was a 94 right? im looking for 94's as well. as far as rigidity, my dad has a 94 and they really dont seem much stiffer. heath

 

thats pretty damn sexy

 

wouldnt you get the exact same thing with the 93 pieces?

 

You can't buy the '93 pieces new anymore either..only the '94. As for the carbon fiber, the adhesive-backed overlays just don't cover everything. Even the ones that claim to do so. However, there's a guy on the forum who does a more permanent covering...you actually have to send you pieces to him. From what I can tell, that looks fantastic. I'm not 100% sure he still does it.

I like my smooth surface so I can paint it

 

Anybody wanna trade me my '94 interior pieces for the some 93's?? I prefer local b/c my car is my daily driver and don't want to mess with shipping and ****.

 

Anyone got a set of '94 panels they want to sell?

I'd want everything...console, dash panlels, all the door panels driver and passenger side...anything with the newer plastic.

If you wanted mine in return, they're in fare shape, but aren't perfect; a few places have the peeling problem.

you should try polishing the plastic. . . . looks amazing.

That does look good but it looks painted not polished, I'd immagine if you tried to polish the peeling problem would accelerate immensely !

 

i dont lie, buddy. . . thats polished.

paul

 

how did you polish it

 

Didn't say you did I just remarked that it looked Painted, instead of polished.... if you did polish it you might want to share the details so that a relative "Noob" like me can't call you on you **** !

 

The polished plastic is in 3xowner s 93 silver . Garfinkles son did the polishing . No paint or clear was used .

 

Just strip the focker down and repaint it. You will save lots of $$ and it will come out better than new.

 

dont get angry dcrosby, relative noobs make mistakes on this forum on a daily basis. im messin man. . . i can understand how it looks painted. all that was done. . . put it on a buffer. thats it.

paul

but, if you dont wanna mess with it. . . just send it on to jeremy garfinkle and hell be glad to do the dirty work. pm me or duboisr for contact info.

 

jdhuegel1 where did you get that paint. It looks awesome. Also, did you paint over the 93 plastic pieces or the 94 plastic pieces. I'm in the process of doing my 93 plastic interior so any help would be great. Thanks.

I got the paint at www.eastwoodco.com.

Search for SEM.

I used the Texture coating (Can't seem to find it anymore on the site but it is available in lots of auto paint stores), and Trim Paint Satin Black Aerosol item no: 10023 Z.

I painted over both 93 and 94 pieces. With a little playing, you can get the 93 stuff to look like 94. I painted over the 94 stuff so the luster would match.

 

Is SEM the name of the paint manufacter? Can I get this paint at a auto parts store or do I have to go to auto paint store? Thanks.

R.K.

 

SEM is the name of the company that makes the paint...

You can get it SOME places... But your best bet is an auto paint/body place. Here's what it looks like.

 

Do you have to prime the plastic before you apply the texture coating? Does the texture coating come in a aresol can or do you have to apply it with a roller? Thanks.

R.K.

 

The texture comes in aerosol. Just like the pic above... They all come in pretty much the same can. All I did to prep was a light sand and cleaning with plastic-prep (SEM product as well)
