Hello all. I have been thinking about switching my headliner to the black OEM version or getting it done in black alcantara. Either route I take, I need all the corresponding black parts (visors, handles, etc.). I started a list of some of the parts needed. The two parts I'm having problems with are the rearview mirror and the lamp unit with the map/dome lights. I was wondering if someone with the black interior could help me out possibly with a VIN or the part #'s. I have checked ebay for a W209 with the black, but no luck. Thanks in advance.

Please let me know if you see something that's not on the list.

Anybody?

Would help if I had the black interior man...

Good luck...

Thanks, I know someone has to be able to help.

First of all I vote for Altantara. I have Alcantara Corbeau seats in my track car and absolutely love them. Second, I can't help you on the parts mate but you can get a spray dye and re-color your existing parts black/semi-black/charc, etc. I did it in another car and they turned out flawless.

That's a good idea Kev. Will definitely save me some money. I'm about 98% sure I will be going with black alcantara. The CF steering wheel I bought has black alcantara grips and the CF shifter will be accompanied by a black alcantara shift boot. I will be upgrading my HVAC and Upper controls to the facelift ones, so I was thinking about getting the Sosche faceplate wrapped in black alcantara also.

You are the freaking man! Thank you. I thought I remembered someone saying they had a black interior, but couldn't remember who. Much appreciated.

I should have some pics of the tail lights soon.

No worries.

So the prices you posted Dyno are for the stock pieces but in black. So you are taking this and than wrapping them in Alcantra?

dynomite05

The pieces I posted are the stock pieces in black. I will be getting my headliner wrapped in black alcantara and need the black pieces to match. I can't have a black headliner with grey handles and visors. lol. I'm also thinking of doing some alcantara on the seats and door panels to tie everything together.

Clkboi

Got you. I must say that will look freaking sweet.
Alcantara is pretty expensive if i am correct? Where are you buying it from

dynomite05

Don't know yet. I won't be doing it myself though. I will be getting it professionally done. Depending on the price, I might do it with my audio.

Clkboi

thought so lol. That job doesn't seem easy at all.

You seen AMGfan's car right? Looks freaking insane inside, well outside too lol

dynomite05

I have seen the outside but not the inside, can you link me please?

I've used the interior spray dye and if you go in even short busts the finished product is very very good. I was also doing the Alcantara & carbon thing for my wheel too! Decided against it though for two reasons, I have the beige interior and the alcantara wheel will show wear & oils very quickly and the CF will get very very hot in the sun here. Decided to go with a nice shaped sport wheel instead - just waiting on Ivan to get back to me.

I am thinking about doing the same with the faceplate, but with vinyl, it'll be uber sexy. Also want to re-do my pillars, headliner and perforated leather on my seats in Alcantara to match my dash colour, completing the two tone deal.

As you can see by the interior pic of my track car (in my album), I'm a big fan of two tone Alcantara interiors!

When are you expecting your wheel to be done?

dynomite05

My whole interior should be here in the next week or two. I too am waiting on Ivan.

Clkboi

i thought he had some interior pic of his headliner in this thread.
You can only see he trunk here

That trunk looks awesome. Kind of what I want to do. That material sure does look sweet.

EuroTra$H

you need this as well

dynomite05

That's covered already. It's included in my interior package. It will look similar to that wheel. The shift knob with the star is also included.

csxian

Do you mean me? If so, what can I do for you, bro?

dynomite05

lol, no. I meant Ivan from DCT.

Kevwood

+1. BTW, we're getting the same shift knob, mine will be silver CF keyless.

dynomite05

Sweet! I can't wait for it to come in.
