Try fabricating some gauge pods in place of the center vents, I think somebody has done that here.

TwistedII, the car is coming for sale next week, I will try to get it for a clublexus member if there is any interest. The interior or the entire car can be parted out.

i thought about that. it really is the perfect spot for them. but i don't want air and heat blowing right onto gauges ya know. unless i rig something, which i'm good at, hahaa.

well, i would def be interested in the interior window trim and center vent section out of that car if possible. keep us posted.

well to bring back the thread. i went and bought some SEM products today. i bought 2 cans of the black satin and a can of the prep stuff. it cost me 22 dollars. i noticed everyone else paid a bit more. i guess i got a deal. i tested it on my window trim pices that are brokent and it seem pretty easy. i scratched it as hard as i could with my nails and the **** didn't budge.

I know this thread is kinda old and all but I felt like bringing it back.

So I also am in the process of changing the Brown interior to Black with a Sem&Leatherique Combo. Hands Down the Sem is a great, The Leatherique takes alot of prep work, meaning you will be sanding till your fingers Bleed. But other then that I would recomend it for front and rear seats.

OK So im almost done EXCEPT for removing the Dash. I'll Post up some Pictures soon, anyone else in the process of doing there interior??

One more thing, if there's anyone near San Diego, CA that has used the dye on their interior and is willing to meet up I would really, really like to see it in person, so hit me up! Thanks.

Hey guys, it's probably been way over a year since my interior has been dyed and it still looks as good as when i first did it. The only problem I had was with the steering wheel. since it's constantly being touched, it gets worn, so I just purchased a black leather wrap.

here are some pics from 2 months ago.
