need help changing gxe to all black interior

I'm looking to change my 93 gxe from the beige/brown interior to all black. Anybody have any spare black interior parts? Also need black leather seats. Getting the car painted black soon, and the beige just doesn't work with it.

At least you have the tan/brown interior and not the black/dark brown interior

actually the tan does go very well with black. it also goes well with blue.

If you look at most high end luxury cars they always use tan leather with black and blue. I actually like tan seats with those colors but hate the brown dash and door panels that came in some of the cars.

my favorite interiors are...in order I might add...

1. I like all black interior

2. all black but the seats (and the seats being tan)

how much are you willing to part with them for? Anybody know any good way to paint a brown dash black with good enough quality that it looks factory? I can get black headliner and black carpet with no problem. I just need to make the dash black, the door panels, the fabric insert in the door panels, and the trim strips that hide the edges of the headliner...shouldn't be too bad overall

I saw a 91' SE that had tan and black, and it DID look nice, but my car has tan and brown, which is wack.

Keep me in mind though when (if) you get ready to sell them and let me know how much.

I was just kidding for the most part...I like the wheels and how they look but they are heavier than I want...after having light wheels I dont want to go back to heavy ones.


I have the motor pulled from my 93auto and rebuilt the VTCs. I pushed the 5spd into the carport last night and have the motor almost ready to pull. I will probably pull it this weekend and then work on doing the stuff I want to before putting the motor in.


I havent decided what I am going to do with the car yet. I got an aluminum flywheel, UDP, Stillen kit and some other goodies plus it already has a WSP Y, Sprints/tokicos, RSTB etc so I may just drive it a little while and enjoy it. Obviously though if the right amount was offered I will sell.
