interior progress pics!!(NO 56K)

Well okay guys, my latest project has been my interior over spring break, this is how it started last sat. after i got off work....

Everything gutted, gave the carpet a real nice cleaning, then put the essentials back in: Driver's seat, shift knob...
The first thing I tackled was velveting the door panels...


after that, I started on the headliner... I don't have any before, but it used to be tan.....ugh.
I masked off the cubby thing and painted it, then masked off a pontiac logo and two triangles on the dome light.

Here's a low-quality night pic of it on and with the lights on. yes the lights are red.

During this entire thing, while the adhesives were drying and curing, I was working mostly on my center console. Painted it black, red and white. Yes, i see the straw wrapper, no, it's not there anymore. You can also notice the door sills are black now.

While I was in that general area, i pulled out the front dash cover and gave it a few coats.

And, still up front, I did myself some clear HVAC knobs. Best free mod i ever did.

Then I headed in back to redo my rear deck. The only before pics i could find kinda suck, and the window is foggy in one, but you can get the general idea...


then i added some velvet and paint......


And that's been my week! I'm not even close to done, though. I'm ordering some black carpet when I get my next paycheck, then saving up for these bad boys:

After those, maybe i'll get my rear vinyl'd or leather'd to match, or possibly a rear-seat delete for when I get my subs, but then there's nowhere to make out in my car I'm also going to buy some black vinyl to wrap my dash in, and i still need to get the glove compartment, steering column, and the driver's side under-dash painted.
Hope you enjoy, and as always, Comments good and bad welcome!!!

i did sand, just as usual procedure, but i like the texture of the OEM parts, so i didn't completely sand them out, just went over them with some 200 grit i believe, and that prepped the surface without ruining the texture. Thanks for all the comments guys, I'll be sure to post more when i get the carpet/vinyl. i also found some seats from APP for about $400 less than those in my previous post, so i may get those instead.

dirty elf- only reason i had time to do it was because I was on spring break... plus i was grounded, so i just had nothing better to do.
