New FD interior parts?

I was wondering if it is still possible to get new interior parts, not just used ones from people parting out their FD's. I have searched the parts forums and searched online with no luck. I'm mainly looking for both door trim peices: the passenger side with the door handle grip and the driver's side with that small surround piece around door release. I have seen some really nice JDM carbon fiber parts but they would obviously not work for LHD.

Yes you can get almost any interior piece except for 93 finish in black (black parts are 94+ finish only). Expect to spend a mint. The pocket around the door handle is probably $50 and it's a single piece of plastic. The passenger door handle assembly is over $400.

80 ish for the the center console.
150 ish for the ac panel,
300ish for the gauge surround and the gauge hood.
3xx+ for the passenger side handle,
150+ for the drivers side door pocket,
for the drivers side door trim is no longer available.

Not sure if prices went up, but that around how much it would cost, don't ask why. Also the finish on the 93 finish sux besides the center console

Thanks guys. You're not kidding on the prices! I think I'll have to see about finding a FD that's being parted out or something. I have seen a few people post about overlaying in carbon fiber? Correct me if I'm wrong but wouldn't that be possible over a broken peice and still be strong enough?
Guess I'm just too used to the old Chevy 1/2 ton where every part is available and at a decent price. Don't get me wrong, I know the LHD FDs are rare by comparison.

The new '93 stuff is pricey, but it doesn't peel like the originals (looks like a paint instead of a film).

RHDjapan carry quite a lot of the interior now. Very expensive though...You would be better repairing and painting old ones.

Your first mistake is saying, NEW.

Also in terms of the finish, if you are going to repaint, buy 93 finish. If not buy 94. The 94 stuff is harder to prep.

Who is?

Who is Ray Crowe?


I want to purchase some new interior plastic, even used if in good condition.
Mazda trix doesnt have what I want.

Any body have any suggestions?

Note - You replied to a 6 year old thread so things discussed here have either a. increased in price or b. are no longer available. I know for a fact that you can't get HVAC panels in 93 or 94 finish anymore.
