Looks great man!
can you give us a process? and a non biased opinion on the product? Iv thought about this as well, but im unsure about the final result. I for one use my arm rest on my door as well as the glove box. i wouldn't want this "Dye" to rub off on my clothes and arms when its hot inside the car

OK update. All of my titanium piece have dried and I just got done polishing. Here is the drivers door panel reassembled. One wouldn't know it now but these panels were really bad. I have spent quite a bit of time bracing and epoxying to firm them up. I just could not stomach purchasing new ones.

Man does it look great. You chose the correct color choice. How is the carpet? Did you paint the plastic footing pieces Black with SEM? Are you going to recover the speaker covers?

Few more
Passenger door
Airbag
Center console mostly assembled.
Carpet is going to be alright I think. I think I will touch it up with the SEM black. I tried a small area using their apply and brush technique. Carpet is not crunchy and feels normal. If you are referring to the vinyl pieces that are sewn into the carpet I have not did anything yet. Not sure yet. I painted everything else black, Going to leave the speaker covers for now. In person they look dark enough. I can see in the pictures they look quite a bit lighter.

Alright here is another update. So far today I have gotten the carpet installed..
I think it came out pretty good.
And I got my dash installed. Notice the iPad which is an absolute staple if you are pulling something apart and your using a CL DIY guide.
Notice how purple my carpet looks in direct sunlight? Gonna have to touch it up.
