Decided to change the theme color again of the car.

So far there has been black CF, red CF, red and black suede, and now orange CF.

While changing the interior i decided to plasti dip my wheels and paint my calipers orange as well.

Here are some pic of the plasti dip process for the chrome trim and window trim.

Since the interior was red i decided to go back to the red middle fin for the grille:

I removed the carbon fiber in red and decided to cover it in suede. Did the same for the door trim as well:

Very happy with the results. Plasti dip is an awesome product IMO and fun to play with.
Lots of credit to a good friend of mine for helping me out with all this work!
Let me know your thoughts

 

I've always thought red alcantara contrasted really well with black leather.

 

Nice job!!

 

How you did the interior?

 

Nice civic you have there brothaa LOL JK . Great work

 

love the fact that after everything is said and done, if you dont like it you can just rip it off.

 

lol you ***. Thanks

 

Same here. Thats the best part about using vinyl and plastidip.

 

With carbon fiber vinyl from ebay

 

The doors also?

 

Yes. The top wood trim of the doors is done with Orange carbon fiber and the bottom wood trim is done with suede

 

Thank you. What is easier to apply, carbon fiber or suede?

 

I find carbon fiber easier to apply. Suedi is thicker and harder to cut in order to make that perfect line

 

Thank you for your help, im going to try to do my interior in red carbon fiber. By the way, i love you shift knob, where did you get it?

 

ahhahahah

 

Red carbon fiber was my favorite while I had it!
Shift knob was custom done by a sponsor here! Me and Mikata got one! I believe it was the guys from formymercedes.com! They had a bunch of colors to chose from! Ill look into my old threads or email and let you know again!

 

Thanks a lot. Hope they have for key less also

 

all of a sudden I feel the need to mod my car!!!!!





very nice work

 

That's cool that you do all your own work, but it all seem like lateral moves to me. TC

 

Your car = My dream car

 

THAT LOOKS TIGHT!!

can you show how you removed the wood pieces from the door and on the stereo/ashtray/shift knob

I want to get paint everything

 

The door pieces i never removed i just covered them while still on.
as far as the radio take a look at Rodneys thread for some detailed info:
