NoLimit95 Black Interior Swap Progress

I think that looks great!:)

I've been gradually changing my interior, first the seats, then the shifter (the original was grey with a black button) then the carpet, console carpet and the package tray.

My black winter car has a great interior that I can get the rest of the parts from if I want. They are too nice to be in a winter car anyway.

I've still got the grey rear quarter trim and door pads on the green car, as well as the dash and headliner.

Some people might not like the way the grey rear quarters look, but I like it for now.
I'll try to get a photo of the back seat tomorrow.

Please do Bill. I would just hate to have to swap them out again and dealing with the seat belts. I would like to see what it looks like though.
 
Yes, the quarter trim is a bit of a pain to change, but those center rear seat belts are a real pane in the glass.:)

I took a photo but the flash makes the grey look lighter than it really is. Opal grey is really much darker than graphite. It might actually look closer to graphite in my photos (including my front seat photo).

Laser, too bad you don't live in Michigan, I've got a black gen 2 Dash, doorpads, quarter trim, headliner, and rear seats, in my spare room (for sale but they are not mine).

Here's my back seat:

Exactly what i was talking about. Only thing i would change is black insted of grey seat belts. It looks more planned than black rear panels and grey door and dash.

Man, I can't tell you how much I like it. I really like how the center console makes it look even more like a cockpit. I think the Black carpet on the lower doors would be perfect.

agreed 100 percent, looks good nolimit i think black lower door carpet would be perfect
 
I'm going to try one and see how it looks chicken. KC96LSC also liked the idea too but I'm going to try a black door panel with grey grilles and grey window switches but leave the door lock switches black. I just don't want to go too far with grey additions to the black panel. The rear panels are staying black. I might swap out grilles in the back but that's it.
 
I still haven't messed with this anymore yet. I'm in the middle of another Mark VIII buy and I'm getting it tomorrow at 1:00 during the lady's lunch break lol. 96 LSC with lite graphite interior. Has mint chrome 10 spokes on it and I mean no curb rash at all and no pitting anywhere. Pics of it tomorrow with a real camera. The car is whatever that red color is, hell, idk. Interior needs a little help but luckily I just pulled that color out of the 95.

Other than that, the car looks damn good. Always been in Alabama too and we don't have salt here. $2200.00 cash, I had to get it. Has 160K on the clock though but it has been taken care of.

I backed out of that sale today. I found another LSC but this one is a 95 and is the same color as my current 95. It also only has right at 68K on the clock. Going to see if I can make this sale happen tomorrow or hopefully this week. If not, I am on the hunt for any Gen LSC but I only want black or white and I don't want a POS. If it's 6K, then ok but it needs to be worth 6K. Looking to stay in the 4K to 5K range and the 95 I'm looking at tomorrow is around $3500 but I think I can get it lowered. He was asking 4K for it and I got him to $3500 over the phone.

Sorry Bill, I tried and don't forget that Jamie has a box full of all different colors or you can paint both of yours to match??

Hey NOLIMIT... I love the new look man! I know you've wanted this or a while & you finally achieved it. Especially since this isn't just another black interior. It's THE black interior!

Yes, it's "The Black" interior. I have always loved my seats and the condition they are in compared to most I have seen. They aren't new but I would rate my seats 8.5 out of 10.

After I go and swap my insurance over to a local State Farm agency tomorrow, I'm most likely going to get on the door panels and get that done. I have a system I really need to get off my ass and put in. The stereo is NIB and in my trunk lol and I haven't even taken it out of the box to be honest. Jamie has the same head unit but he's already put his in and says it matches the dash / interior lighting to a tee. Kenwood eXcelon KDC-X993

I still have the three 10" sub box setting in my room with new 10's in it, ready to go in and my amps are in my room boxed up still.

But you're right, I do like black on black better but my 2nd choice has always been white on black and I'm slowly getting it there but with a reminder of what I once had lol. So really, I'll always have my 94 with me or should I say, I'll be setting on it.....

The 98 transmission is being pulled from the 94 this week or next and then that car is being hauled away from here for good. I have taken all I need off of it.
 
Is it done yet?

No, not yet. I drove all the way to Carrollton, GA. or w/e it is and looked at another Mark. He wanted 3400.00 but i got him down to 2900.00and I still left there without it. The air didn't work and yes, I could have fixed it but don't make me drive nearly 4 hours and tell me everything works fine and looks good inside.

The only good thing i can say about it is that the headlight housings looked less than a year old and it had good tires on it. Had a big ass cone filter by K&N without a heat shield. 154K on the clock and over spray on the paint. I learned a big lesson from this.

Driving home tonight, I had more bugs plastered to the front but got them washed off by high pressure before I came home. I'll look for a car later when someone has something worth looking at. It's stereo time now and I'll get to the door panels during that process. Doing rear shocks tomorrow too.
