Question Replacement Door and Console Trim??????

What's up to all my new fam!! I was planning to get a Lex and have been reading this site for weeks. I just got it tonight and am now worthy of posting on here. Anyway, it's a 99 GS3 BLK/BLK and since I've been wanting it, I've been planning to put a real aluminum dash in it. It will look live as hell with the black leather. The one thing I don't think will look good with it is the brown wood on the doors and console. As much as I search I can't find any custom shop that has a replacement or cover kit for these pieces. Is there any hope of finding a black wood or aluminum solution for this??? Thanks in advance from a wannabe turned being.

Welcome Scheme and congrats on the new GS!

Try using the search feature to find what you're looking for. I've included two links to the search URL that contain several threads that give you some options...

Scheme,

You need to go to an Atlanta meet and see Mumbles (Eric's) GS400. Looks very similar to Globe's. Nice job, did it himself.

I've go to find a way to get that. That looks beatiful!
I figured I would get my interior together first then the outside.

www.islandmotorsports.com

That shop is very close to where I live so I went there. They don't have the vinyl on the site.

But I think you could order some from them.

Otherwise just look for car-interior-use vinyl that is flexible. That's all you need.
