    Question Customizing the Interior

    Gday lads,

    Ive got a plan to soon rip the entire interior apart and replace it with paint and leather type materials.

    But before i go ahead just want to get a good idea of what to use. Ive been told vinyl dye would be the way to go with the dash etc but what kind of primer would i need/be best to use?

    On the parts where ill be applying leather what kind of glue should i use?

    Also half of my door trims appear to be made out of cloth (See Pic 1) how would i get rid of that or go over it?

    Cheers

    Black.

    If you do it white I'll park my car up your arse.

    As for cloth go to Finnies and get some different material and just replace it.

    I did my doors with VHT Vinyl dye; only thing i prep'd it with was a light sand with a block to roughen it up, and clean the shavings off with some method, worked a treat

    Lol, it is going to be mainly black with some white and red here and there.

    Any specific kind of glue i should use with faux leather?
